Pyrénées-Orientales

Bordering Andorra and Spain, the Pyrénées-Orientales landscape tumbles from high mountain passes to beautiful Mediterranean sea. Traditional fishing villages dot the coastline – the most stunning of which, Collioure, was once the hang out of Picasso and pals. Now you can sample the freshest anchovies and the delicious local Banyul dessert wine. Magnificent Cathar castles sit upon hill tops and craggy cliffs nearby in this, French Catalonia.
