Aspet walks

This hike starts at the unusual Miègecoste Chapel, follows a discovery trail with the ruins of a watchtower, and continues on a large loop around the heights of Aspet. It is one of the most beautiful vantage points for admiring the Pic de Cagire, the "lord of Comminges".

A beautiful line hike, which requires you to leave a vehicle at the finish beforehand. From the village of Razecueillé, the route takes you directly to the Pic de Paloumère, offering magnificent views of the Piedmont to the north and the highest peaks to the south, east and west. The route to the finish is very varied: forestry paths, ridges, old paths that are a little forgotten and therefore poorly marked, beech forests frequented mainly by wild boar and roe deer.

On the border of Ariège, a marked and shaded hike along the Goute de Pet d'Ase to see the Planque waterfall. Very pleasant in hot weather.

Arbas, land of bears, paragliders and beautiful hikes! The hike I suggest follows a ridge trail and offers beautiful views of the Comminges to the north and the high peaks of the Pyrenees to the south, all without much difficulty.

An easy hike once you've made the climb, with magnificent views of the Pyrenees.

The hike is suitable in all seasons. If there is snow, snowshoes may be necessary (depending on the depth).

The summit offers a beautiful panorama. The route takes you through the forest to the Col de l'Artigue, then gently climbs to the summit of Puech.

This hike at the foot of Pic du Gar allows you to discover the small villages of Comminges surrounding "Lou Calem" (the bald mountain): Moncaup, Arguenos, Cazaunous.

A very beautiful hike from the Col des Ares. The route remains shaded all the way to the Cabane du Pic du Gar. Classified as a difficult hike due to the elevation gain, but there are no technical difficulties.

This circular starting from Saint-Martin is a good warm-up to prepare you for climbing the Pyrenean peaks. It will take you down and then back up some pretty hills in the foothills, around Figarol, to reach the bed of the Garonne before climbing back up to the starting point, with the Cagire as your focal point.

Starting from the Col de Menté, this easy hike takes you on a circular route at the foot of the Cagire and very close to the Col du Pas de l'Âne.

This hike allows you to reach the Pic de Cagire in a morning, offering a 360° view between the plain and the highest peaks of the Pyrenees. 07/01/2024: Hiking prohibited to the public from 1 January 2025 to 31 March 2025 by municipal decree (from Pic de L'Escalette towards Pas de l'Âne via the ridges located in the commune of Boutx). This hike is strongly discouraged in winter due to its dangerous nature, particularly between the summit of Les Parets and Col du Pas de l'Âne! See practical information.

A very pleasant circular with autumn colours. Only to be attempted in good weather. Splendid 360° view from the Pic d'Escalette over the surrounding peaks. Feasible in winter with good snow conditions but classified as difficult with frozen ground.

A beautiful hike that is accessible to families as it is fairly short. It offers magnificent views of the Pyrenees and ends in a rather rocky environment. The views are quite dizzying for a hike of this length, but you do get to reach a peak!

A beautiful outing between Ariège and Haute-Garonne, tackling the Col de Portet d'Aspet

This looping route around the Pic du Gar and Pic de Cagire from the small village of Bezins takes you right up close to the impressive limestone cliffs and gives the Pic du Gar, which is less than 2,000 m high, an air of grandeur. Crossing the beech forest provides a shady route, with beautiful views over the valley. Access to the Pic de Cagire via the north-facing slope offers views over the plain and, in fine weather, spectacular views of the Pyrenees from the summit. This view can still be enjoyed along the ridge route.This hike can be done over two days, with an overnight stay in a hut or bivouac.Gpx trail recommended.

Magnificent ascent of the Pic du Gar via the Col de Teyech. Superb views of the surrounding valleys. A challenging hike with a lot of elevation gain but no technical difficulty.
