I suggest you discover the beautiful and uncrowded Lac du Chabarrou, at an altitude of 2,300 m. An interesting alternative to the very popular hike to the Oulettes de Gaube refuge. Access is challenging. Don't forget to admire the Pont d'Espagne (a very popular tourist site) before or after your hike.

Second stage of the four-day adventure from Cauterets to Luz-Saint-Sauveur via Petit Vignemale and Gavarnie. It can be done in one day, but I think it would be more enjoyable to split it into two days to take the time to appreciate the magnificent scenery!

Day 1
The Cirque de Gavarnie needs no introduction; it is a monument, a cathedral, a colossus.
The route via the Plateau de Bellevue allows you to discover it from this remarkable viewpoint.
The path running along the slopes of the Bosquet Long adds an extra dimension, allowing you to appreciate it in all its splendour and enjoy a tranquillity not found on the more well-known routes.
The return route along the ledge on the right bank takes you back to the Refuge des Espuguettes, where you’ll spend the first night.
