Valleys of
Gavarnie

In the Gavarnie Valleys, we are lucky to be able to move from one ski area to another thanks to five ski resorts and three Nordic areas.

Whether you prefer wide slopes, slaloming in the forest or enjoying a clear view of the peaks, these resorts allow beginners and experts alike to ski in very diverse environments.  

A favorite destination for hikers, the valleys hide some of the most beautiful routes in the Pyrenees.

From peaks at 3 meters to accessible hikes with young children, including treks that follow the idyllic Pyrenean lakes, there is something for everyone!
En all seasons, you can find a trail to satisfy your desires elsewhere. On snowshoes in winter and on foot the rest of the year, find a accompanied outing or the appropriate route. 

Here, we enjoy simple things, around a meal, a discussion on a street corner or marveling at the spectacle that nature offers us.

Generous, the inhabitants share with you this love of their territory, whether through good dishes, anecdotes, local products or objects created in the heart of the Pyrenees. Keep in mind all these fragments: smiles, the memory of a lilting accent, a local expression, a certain spontaneity and gastronomic discoveries... You will see, our valleys definitely have an air of coming back!

Aubisque, Soulor, Spandelles, Tourmalet, Tentes, Luz Ardiden, Hautacam, Pont d’Espagne or Cambasque…

Names that echo the vast cycling playground in the area! In spring, as soon as the snow recedes at altitude, confront the legendary passes of the Pyrenees. A way to move at your own pace, and take the time to evolve according to the pedal strokes.

To go further, also follow all the events taking place in our valleys. The unmissable summer event remains the Tour de France!

Over the years, water has delicately sculpted the Pyrenean massif, creating the current landscape, punctuated by magnificent lakes and rivers. But it is underground that we find another Pyrenean treasure, naturally warm waters with beneficial properties!

For therapeutic reasons, to do yourself some good and take care of yourself, immerse yourself in the waters of the thermal baths ofArgelès-Gazost, Barèges, Luz-Saint-Sauveur and Cauterets.

Throughout the year, in the different valleys, there are activities to satisfy all members of the tribe!

Accessible, the Vallées de Gavarnie welcome you for holidays with children under 3 years old up to adolescents and young adults.  
Discover the joys of a mountain vacation and create your memories based on landscapes, lovely walks, outdoor activities and unusual experiences! 

Although here they are Pyrenean enthusiasts, athletes who set out to attack the peaks always find what they are looking for in the Gavarnie Valleys.

Major routes, 3 meter peaks, ice waterfalls, unusual or demanding climbs... there are numerous options for starting or improving these mountain practices! Contact our guides and guides to explore the Pyrenees from another angle. 

It's well known that in the south of France, we take the time and enjoy the present moment. A philosophy of life which shines through in the inhabitants but also through the preserved nature, which invites you to disconnect and contemplate.

Coming to the Vallées de Gavarnie means taking a moment for yourself, slowing down the pace and savoring each moment by disconnecting from everyday life. Outdoor getaways, cultural visits, sporting activities or activities around well-being,... Choose experiences that resonate with you and that make you feel alive.
