Haut-Languedoc Regional Natural Park

Haut-Languedoc Regional Nature Park is a regional natural park in the south of the Massif Central within the Aveyron, Hérault, and Tarn departments of France. These areas are considered the Haut-Languedoc, compared to the Bas-Languedoc.
Administered by the Federation of French Regional Nature Parks, it was created on 22 October 1973 and revised on 17 August 1999. It has an area of 2,605 km², with 82,000 people living within its boundaries.
The park comprises a very diverse range of countryside, which is why seven different areas have been officially defined within it:
Caroux-Espinouse
Montagne noire
Monts de Lacaune
Monts d'Orb
Plateau des Lacs
Sidobre
Vignes et Vallées
The park provides a habitat for more than 240 species of birds, in a stunningly diverse range of climate and scenery. It also provides a home for mouflons, successfully reintroduced from Corsica.
