FONTESTORBES - One of the natural wonders of the World. Characterized by a most extraordinary phenomenon, the spring waters run in a constant flow most of the year. Yet, they suddenly become intermittent at low water time, July – September, due to rhythmic regular rate of flow variations. Fewer than thirty similar phenomena of intermittent water flow sites exist around the world. The cave entrance can be accessed by steppingstones, which cross the flowing water. LOCAL AMENITIES - Belesta offers a relaxing and picturesque base with easy access to the surrounding beauty and places of interest in the Ariege. Within a two-minute walk from the house, the town hosts a variety of shops. Patisserie, Boulangerie, Pizzeria, Newsagent, Post Office, Bank, Butchers, Troubadour Restaurant, listed in the Rough Guide.
