Discover astrada!

Our homelands are nourished by the River Garonne, which flows from the peaks of the Pyrenees into the Gironde estuary.

These lands stretch along the Atlantic coast and across the border into neighbouring Spain, but the culture extends across this official frontier, following the mountains towards the Mediterranean coastline.

The Midi Toulousain, with its beautiful cities, marks the centre of these lands. These are lands of interchange where people pass through, but they are equally a place where people love to settle and live.

We know this place intimately, this is where we have created our memories, where we live, where we feel, where we explore…

Here, we play rugby, the “old-timers” wear berets, and duck recipes are sacred! The younger ones spend the summer harvesting garlic and attending village festivals, where they sometimes sing in Occitan dialect, dance to the rhythm of the bandas, and where some like to play pétanque or belote tournaments…

Here, we hunt for wild boar, we like to share large meals, spend weekends hiking in the Pyrenees or enjoying the coastline, whether oceanic or Mediterranean.

…and the connection among this diversity is the southern accent and the feeling of living in a large, privileged and welcoming region.

Here in the great South-West, the mildness of the climate combines with the gentleness of life… Through a mindful mix of lifestyle and heritage.

*astrada shows you the way and invites you on a thematic discovery of our beautiful region.
