Eus is in the Pyrénées-Orientales department of France. Situated near the border with Spain, the area enjoys a mix of French, Spanish and Catalan influences which can all be found in its history, architecture, culture and cuisine. Apart from many places of interest to be visited, the area offers unparalleled walking, sightseeing, and nature-watching opportunities. For those seeking greater adventure, summer activities include rock-climbing, mountaineering and watersports, while in winter the ski resorts of Andorra and Font-Romeu are close by.
The busy town of Prades is ten minutes from Eus. Visit its bustling street-market, or famous summer music festival, or relax in the Square at one of its many bars and restaurants. The city of Perpignan and pretty beach towns of Collioure and Banyuls are less than hour away, as is the Spanish border and rugged seaside villages like Cap de Creus or Cadaquès. Barcelona is just a two hour drive. Better yet, why not stay at home in the beautiful Têt Valley and visit the Catalan fortress town of Villefranche, or ride the famous yellow mountain train, or discover the enchanting abbey of St Michael de Cuxa. Or simply relax in Eus and enjoy the sunshine!
