    • The Pic du Midi de Bigorre peaks at an altitude of 2,877 meters. It is one of the Grands Sites of Midi-Pyrénées, an absolute must for mountain lovers and those who enjoy breathtaking views. From there, you can see the entire Pyrenees mountain range and the Occitanie plateau.


      No need to be an experienced hiker to get there, the Pic du Midi has a cable car so the whole family can get there safely and in 15 minutes. On site, there is an orientation table and guides who will take you on a journey from this Pyrenees viewpoint. At 360 degrees, an enchanting landscape awaits you! You can even, depending on the season and the weather, observe vultures, chamois and other birds of prey. For the more courageous, the 12-meter-long footbridge is suspended in the void, with a glass floor, for a truly original and unique experience!


      The Planetarium Dome is also a place of astronomy, for observing the celestial vault and the planets. Here, there is no stray light, just Man and the sky, in an educational interface with scientists and experts. It is possible to sleep at the Pic du Midi, to enjoy all the joys it offers!

    We skipped all the touristic attractions like the cafe and the cable car and came here by foot. Starting from Col du Tourmalet you'll have to cover 14,4 km (round-trip) and 740 m of altitude to reach the mountaintop. Most of the path is a wide road, pretty easy to walk on. However, the topmost part is more difficult, narrow, stony and slippery. I would recommend the path only to trained people with sure-footedness and mountain-experience and without vertigo. In any case, don't forget to bring good shoes, sunscreen, food and a sufficient(!!) amount of water. It is a beautiful hike amidst rocks, sheep, lakes, ruins, mountain-flowers and lizzards. You also have a chance to glimpse griffon vultures at close range. The summit itself is beautiful and scenic, looking down on the mountain ranges and snowy tops of the Pyrenees.
