A lush green valley runs through the vast commune of Fontrieu, amongst beautiful farmland dotted with hedgerows and dry stone walls. It was here that the Ouillats convent was established in 1825, benefiting from fertile land and an abundance of water. Above Biot and to the south, the mountain rises 300 metres and marks the start of a vast wooded area on the granite ridge of Puech Margot.
In this landscape, amidst recent clear-cuts and old high forests, the cry of the harrier and the
pecking of the woodpecker often echo the rustling of the wind through the branches.
Must-sees: beautiful views of the Montagne Noire, the rotunda, and the Ouillats Convent.
