Already known to the Romans who came to bathe there, the waters of the salt spring of Salies have always been a godsend for the locals, who also have ancestral rights to this precious asset. It must be said that the water of Salies is 7 times saltier than sea water. The thermal baths which have wisely turned towards Fitness are the best example of its exploitation.
Salies de Béarn is today a very pleasant little town, crossed by the Saleys river, pretty corbelled houses border the river, it is good to live in this city where this somewhat outdated but so pleasant thermal spirit reigns.
You will visit the Salt Museum and the thermal baths of Salies...
