Tourism Saint-Béat

Saint Béat is situated in the department of the High Garonne and the region Midi Pyrenees. In the antiquity, the site of Saint Béat is known as a "Passus Lupi" (passage of the wolves), for the area on this part French of the valley of Aran then would not have allowed that to wolves to pass without wetting their paws in the Garonne. The opening of the station of skiing The Mourtis gave again a new tourist momentum to the city, as more recently its festival of sculpture of marble, that allows of young sculptors to express themselves by their art.
