Activity description

Discover the magic of the Pyrenees by night! This snowshoeing hike is an opportunity to discover the superb peaks and sublime valleys with a certified mountain leader as your guide.

There's something magical about discovering the Pyrenees after dark. The mountains, once immersed in the darkness, take on a more intimate and mysterious aspect.

It's an incredible privilege! This is your chance to discover the mountains in a way that few people get the chance to do! This nocturnal snowshoeing adventure is an opportunity to discover new sensations - everything is multiplied tenfold! You'll have the chance to observe nocturnal animals emerging from their dens, to move about in the half-light with the moon as your only source of light (and your headlamps!), and to see the stars clearly visible in the sky!

The snow-covered valleys of the Pyrenees offer ideal powder snow for you to leave your footprints in! This tour is a real adventure in a white paradise, where the fir trees are covered in a white mantle and the animals live freely, so you'll be able to spot their tracks easily.

Beginners are welcome on this incredible snowshoeing hike adventure during the night, off the beaten track!
