    Prades is a high mountain village perfect for any nature fanatic! Walkers, walkers, cyclists and skiers will find their happiness there, breathing the pure and lively air of the mountain in a preserved and authentic site.

    Strongly marked by Catharism, Prades remains a fortified enclosure of the "Fort" hence its medieval appearance. You can discover a restored medieval well, discovered in 1997 during sanitation works, its Griffe washhouse testifying to a laborious past of "laundry", and its 12 fountains which enliven the small streets of the village.
