Leisures

Set in a peaceful valley and surrounded by pleasant views, the campsite is a lovely place to take a break or as an excellent  base to explore the National Park : this fantastic reserve of natural land set aside for human recreation and enjoyment.

And the best known and most prestigious of cycling’s three “Grand Tours”, the Tour de France passes nearby the campsite this year !!

During your stay you can find different activities organised by the campsite   :

-Mountain walks  : departure every days from the campsite.
Our mountain guide “Pierre” is at your disposal to present a slideshow and guide you on hikes you can follow, discovering the wildlife and flora of the high Pyrenees. If you want to see the majestic sunrise over the pryrenees Pierre invites you to a night overflowing with the emotion of discovery. Walking with a guide gives you a better chance  to appreciate the mountain environment in all its splendour, and learn more about making your own way in the mountains.

 

-Canyoning  : An easy canyoning route in the pyrenees that is suitable for beginners whatever your level, ideal for families and groups.

Rafting : a unique outdoor experience on the rivier at the foot of the National Park of Pyrenees.

Via Ferrata  :if you don’t have climbing experience, we would recommend to practice via ferrata with a mountain guide. Ideal for a first time with children, it allows you to climb small cliffs and to have a nice view and good sensations with your family in total safety. The guide will teach you techniques which will help you to climb better.
