Beautiful city that deserves a stopover.

The Port of Lers is a crossing point which offers a beautiful panorama where you may be lucky enough to see Mertens black horses. It is also a place which has seen the Tour de France pass many times.

The Soulcem pond is a reservoir designed in the 1980s on a former plateau dedicated to pastoralism. Today it is the meeting point of many hiking trails that connect France and Spain. The place is worth a short break to enjoy the view of the Vicdessos valley.

According to legend, following the victory over the Saracens at Pré Lombard in 778, Charlemagne witnessed an apparition. A lady radiant with beauty then appears and immediately disappears. At dawn, the ground is plowed and a bronze statue of Notre-Dame-de-la-Victoire emerges from the ground. Transported to the church of Foix, the statue miraculously returned to Sabart twice: “This is where Our Lady wants to be honored.” Thus was decided the erection of a chapel dedicated to Notre-Dame-de-la-Victoire. The chapel that we can currently see has its origins in a Romanesque church rebuilt in 1104 on a Carolingian church partly destroyed in 865. But it was largely remodeled in the 16th and 19th century. The facade has some granite stones from the 11th century, the remaining bell tower-façade copy only dates from 1842 and the crenellated keep is only from 1870. Having thus resisted numerous destructions, the chapel became an emblematic monument of the Pyrenean region. Sabarthès, in the upper Ariège valley. Even today, an important pilgrimage is held there in September each year.

This small town in the Ariège Pyrenees regional natural park is at the crossroads of many hiking routes. The town and its hamlets are dynamic and offer many activities in summer, which makes them very pleasant to cross. If you want to spend the night there, you will find many accommodation options.
