The Pyrenees Mountains offer a walking or hiking experience suitable for all abilities. The Pyrenees is a walker’s paradise with its green valleys, forests and snow capped mountain peaks. For the hiker with climbing experience the HRP follows the line of the peaks The GR10 walk follows a less severe line along the Pyrenees or the GR7 which touches the medieval town of Mirepoix. For a more leisurely circuit walk you could try one on the sixteen circuits in the canton of Massat. |
There are many one day walks that can be done such as that which takes you to the spectacular Ars waterfall, starting from above Alus-les-bains.
For families with children we hold a book called "les sentiers d’Emilie en Ariege: 50 promenades tres faciles" This is a book containing 50 walks especially for children. For those longer walks and days out with small children why not hire a donkey to make things easier. For more information, click the following links... Don’t forget the mountains can be unpredictable so take some simple precautions when hiking no matter how good the weather is when you set out. As well as a good map carry a whistle, compass, survival sack and enough extra food and water. Other walking sites that may interest you |
