    • HIKES, WALKS AND DISCOVERY AT THE SUMMIT OF THE PIC DU JER

      An easy and pleasant trail

      Upon exiting the Pic du Jer funicular, a charming botanical trail invites you on a short walk to the summit. Mostly paved, then becoming more natural on the final section, it remains accessible to families with children. Less than 100 meters of elevation gain is all it takes to reach the highest point. Along this mountain walk, 16 information panels mark the path, allowing you to discover the richness of the local flora. It's a simple and fun way to introduce young children to nature observation, while enjoying a peaceful stroll.


      Observing the wildlife and plants as a family

      The Pic du Jer is a vast playground for curious minds. The trail offers wonderful opportunities to admire a diverse biodiversity : mountain flowers, wild plants, as well as birds, insects, and small animals that are sometimes surprised by hikers. For families, the walk becomes a true exploration where each step is a discovery. Parents and children share a special moment, combining learning with the pleasure of hiking.


      A summit with spectacular views

      Once you reach the summit, the view is breathtaking: a 360° panorama unfolds, encompassing Lourdes, the valley, and the entire Pyrenees mountain range. It's the perfect place to relax, admire the scenery, take out your binoculars, or capture some beautiful souvenir photos. Some choose to extend their visit with a picnic, while others simply savor the moment. Whether for a family hike, a school trip, a group outing, or even a private event, the summit of Pic du Jer offers a unique atmosphere, ideal for both relaxation and exploration.


      To prepare for your outing and book your access to the Pic du Jer funicular, simply go to the official ticket office.

    Vue exceptionnelle et impressionnant sur la ville de Lourdes. Point vue du Pic du Jer de Lourdes wahou et pour les personnes sensibles ne pas prend le Funiculaire qui monte à 900 mètres d'aptitude. Plusieurs points de randonnées . Bien apprécié avec la famille.
