L'Albère: a full-scale escape in the heart of the Vallespir

The Catalan Eden, the new Provence of the Pyrénées-Orientales.

Nestled in the green hills of the Vallespir, between the slopes of the Massif des Albères and the Mediterranean breeze, the small village of L’Albère invites you to relax and reconnect with nature. Here, time slows down, the landscapes open up, and every moment feels like a deep breath.

🏡 The Chalet de L’Albère

At the heart of this unspoilt setting lies the Chalet de L’Albère, a wood-and-stone hideaway, ideal for a holiday rental in the Vallespir. This cosy retreat combines authenticity and modern comfort: a large panoramic terrace, fireplace, fully equipped kitchen, and breathtaking views over the valley. Perfect for families, couples, or nature lovers.

🚵‍♂️ Outdoor sports & activities

L’Albère and its surroundings offer a wide range of outdoor activities:
  • Hiking to Pic Neulos or the Saint-Martin-de-l’Albère chapel, with panoramic views over the Roussillon plain and the Mediterranean.
  • Mountain biking and trail running through cork-oak forests and the massif’s paths.
  • Swimming and picnics at Lac de Saint-Jean-Pla-de-Corts, less than 30 minutes away.
  • Climbing, paragliding, horse riding — great ways to discover the mountains from a different angle.

🍃 The spirit of the Vallespir

L’Albère is authentic Catalonia: ancient stonework, fragrant scrubland, golden light on the peaks. A place to discover to breathe, to rediscover silence and the simple pleasure of unspoilt landscapes.
