Campan Valley (Vallee de Campan) |

Campan – Campan is a small village, famous for its tradition of “mounaques,” large life-size rag doll figures set up in front of the houses and businesses. As you wander through town, kids might see a mounaque of a man in a beret, wedding party with bride and groom, soccer player, musician, skier, chef – each one is unique. (Summers only.) | |

Medous Caves (Les Grottes de Medous) – Take a one hour tour (in French) through caves with spectacular formations and a clear underground river. The tour ends with a memorable boat ride on the river, silently gliding past lighted stalactites and stalagmites! It’s cool in the cave, so bring a light jacket or sweater, and the ground is pretty wet. Cave is open April – Oct., closed from noon – 2pm daily. |
