    • VISIT THE PIC DU JER AS A FAMILY IN A FUN AND UNUSUAL WAY

      An ideal and unusual outing for young and old.

      The Pic du Jer is a must-see destination for a family visit to Lourdes. Easily accessible thanks to its historic funicular, it offers a unique experience that appeals to both children and adults. The cable car ride itself is a moment of discovery, sparking the curiosity of even the youngest visitors. Once at the summit, families can follow a marked trail leading to the observatory. From there, the panoramic view stretches across the town of Lourdes, the valley, and the majestic peaks of the Pyrenees. This family outing combines relaxation, wonder, and the discovery of nature. It's an easy activity to organize and perfectly suited for a day out with children.


      FAMILY LEISURE AND ACTIVITIES AT PIC DU JER

      A variety of experiences to share

      Beyond the scenic walk, the Pic du Jer offers a wide range of family activities. Hiking enthusiasts will appreciate the accessible trails, where everyone can explore the rich local flora and fauna. For children, it's a chance to have fun while discovering nature, thanks to safe and playful paths, including escape games. More active families will also find plenty to enjoy with the mountain biking trails, which add a dynamic dimension to the day. Each family member can thus enjoy something that suits them, whether it's a relaxing break, an educational walk, or a more athletic activity. The Pic du Jer is therefore the perfect place to mix things up and make new discoveries during a family outing.


      A FRIENDLY PLACE FOR A FAMILY VISIT

      A natural and welcoming setting

      The Pic du Jer is also a welcoming space, ideal for families to gather and enjoy a change of scenery near Lourdes. The visit brings all generations together around a shared experience: children marvel at the mountain, parents appreciate the peace and quiet and the landscapes, and grandparents can easily share the discovery thanks to the site's accessibility. After the hike, it's pleasant to extend the visit with a relaxing break or a delicious treat, making the outing even more enjoyable.

      The great advantage of the Pic du Jer is that it brings together in one place accessible family leisure activities, varied family activities and a unique natural panorama, all just a few minutes from the centre of Lourdes.
