Discovering natural snails


Nestled at the foot of the Canigou, the snail farm is operated by Stéphane and Nathalie Ferrat. They offer you to discover their farming following a schedule of natural conditions (sustainable agriculture). They will make you taste the cargolade and answer during the visit of their facilities to any questions you may have on the life of the snail.
