Vernet-les-Bains (http://www.ot-vernet-les-...) is a village in the Languedoc-Roussillon region in southwest France. It is in the Pyrenées Orientales department. Some guidebooks make it sound as if its attractions were somehow in the past but it has features that make it special today as a place to stay for a week or more in a stunningly beautiful mountain area.
