A breathtaking panorama of Mont Valier
Located in the Alet valley near Ercé, the hamlet of Les Granges de Cominac offers one of the most spectacular panoramas in Ariège. Lined up on a grassy ridge, these ancient stone barns with slate or rusted tin roofs form a typical backdrop to the massive silhouette of Mont Valier.
A busy place
of pastoral tradition
Vestiges of summer pastures and preserved rural heritage
In the past, these barns served as shelters for shepherds during the summer months. Today, they bear witness to rural mountain architecture and pastoral life in the Couserans. Some have been restored in keeping with their original materials and forms, lending the site an authentic charm.
A peaceful corner
for lovers of photography and silence
A must at sunrise or sunset
The Granges de Cominac are very popular with photographers and landscape enthusiasts. At dawn or dusk, the low light sublimates the rooftops, hills and mountains. It’s also the perfect spot for a quiet picnic or contemplative break.
