Finestret
This tiny hamlet in the Pyrénées-Orientales sits in the Conflent country of southern France, a Pyrenean valley region drained by the Lentillà and several other watercourses. The surrounding area carries two designated natural zones of ecological and botanical interest, and UNESCO World Heritage sites lie within the wider region. Finestret is rural and quiet, in the orbit of Perpignan, and suits visitors looking for mountain terrain and unspoiled river valleys rather than urban amenities.
