l’Occitanie
Welcome to one of France’s most beautiful regions! From Camping Le Val de Cesse, located in Mirepeïsset in the Aude department, on the border with the Hérault, discover a region rich in history, landscapes and traditions.
Whether you’re a heritage enthusiast, a nature lover or an epicurean at heart, you’ll love visiting Occitanie.

The most beautiful towns in Occitania
Just a few minutes from our 4-star campsite in the Aude, don’t miss the majestic city of Carcassonne, a UNESCO World Heritage site, with its ramparts, castle and medieval streets. Further south, Narbonne will charm you with its historic center, its landscaped riverbanks and the Halles de Narbonne, voted “Most Beautiful Market in France in 2022”. For a breath of fresh air, head for the beaches of Gruissan, just 30 minutes away. And if you want to go further afield, Montpellier, Albi and the “pink city” of Toulouse are well worth a visit.
