La maison Bois et Soleil

La maison Bois (as it's always been called) has joined forces with the Occitan sun to become: "La maison bois et soleil" (The wood and sun house).

Discover the Ségala, a wild country of character, between the Viaur valley and mining heritage.

Between Tarn and Aveyron, the Viaduc du Viaur (1902) spans the valley and its "traverses", 3800 tons of steel, it seems to rest there, as light as a feather, a harmonious blend of technology and nature. Discover the Planques chapel at the end of a shady path, the Thuriès dam with its 1920 power station and a whole range of Hiking trails.

Known for its mining past, Carmaux, the city of Jean Jaurès, is proud of its identity, personalized by its monuments: Château de la Verrerie, the "Mine Office", the "Power Station", parks, the Mine Museum. All amenities and services: restaurants, shops, Friday Market, Cinema...

Just 5 minutes away, you can enjoy the cool waters of Lake de la Roucarié: supervised swimming, fitness trail, kids' games, rowing.
For fun family activities, there's Cap'découverte, a multi-purpose leisure center built on the former open-cast mine site near Carmaux.
