LA FERME D'OULAN BAT - CAMP DE YOURTES
Spend a superb stay in a yurt! It is along the Planque stream in Arbas, at the bottom of a small protected valley, that Nicolas and Céline have chosen to set up their Pyrenean donkey farm, in a preserved nature, they have set up 3 yurts with all comfort! On the farm, many animals: sheep, pigs, donkeys and possibilities of hikes with the donkeys from the campsite. In short, a beautiful moment of disconnection and conviviality at the farm!
Situated in the foothills of the Pyrenees opposite the Paloumère mountain range, the Oulan Bât farm enjoys a quiet, unspoilt location.
The camp comprises two 30m² "family" yurts for 4/6 people and a small 18m² yurt for 2/3 people, more suitable for a couple. Like traditional Mongolian yurts, this is a single-room family dwelling. The only openings are the front door and the toono (skylight at the top). A great opportunity to sleep with your head in the stars!

- Yurt rental,
- Sheets and towels,
Optional evening meal and breakfast
