Awaiting 2023 visiting conditions
Overlooking the Ariège Valley, a huge circus awaits your eyes: the Trimouns talc quarry, one of the largest in the world.
At an altitude of 1800 m, on giant bleachers, men are working. With enormous machines, they discover, extract, sort and transport talc, the softest and most tender rock on our earth. Facing them, the Pyrenees chain unrolls its snowy peaks.
