Activity description

Enjoy the natural landscapes of the Hautes-Pyrénées on a snowshoeing hike from Cauterets!

Immerse yourself in the natural, snow-covered landscapes of the Val d'Azun, surrounded by mountains, forests and snow-capped peaks. Nicknamed the Eden of the Pyrenees, the Val d'Azun is the ideal place for a magical winter excursion where you can enjoy nature at close quarters.

This snowshoeing excursion will take you along paths little known to other hikers. Accompanied by a passionate and qualified local mountain guide, come and discover the unspoilt nature close to the Pyrenees National Park. You'll pass through several of the region's authentic villages and enjoy the climate with its unique sunshine thanks to the orientation of the valley!

During your hike, you'll pass through a variety of mountain landscapes: pine forests, snow-capped peaks and valleys. The Col du Soulor and Col de Couraduque provide a breathtaking backdrop to round off your magnificent weekend in style.

You'll be accompanied by a local guide who will reveal all the secrets of this region of the Pyrenees and adapt to your level of ability. You'll also enjoy a well-earned break with a hot drink in a magnificent natural setting.

The low difficulty of this walk makes it suitable for all levels of hiker, making it the perfect activity for an outing with family or friends!
