Melles walks

The Pic du Crabère is a must-see summit forming a tripoint between Haute-Garonne, Ariège and Spain. It offers a superb view of the entire Maladeta glacier and the highest peaks in Spain, including the king of the Pyrenees: Aneto! A fairly long hike, but without any technical difficulty, and with a well-marked and easy-to-follow path.

A beautiful hike with no major difficulties, most of which takes place under the trees. At the summit of Tuc de Pan (1,724 m), you will discover an exceptional panorama of the Garonne valley as it enters France, as well as the Maladeta Massif, among other sights.

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!

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.

This hike will take you to the summit of Pic de la Calabasse (2,210 m) via Col de l'Herbe Soulette and Col de la Terme. The forest road allows you to warm up, then pass through forests and large expanses of summer pastures. A short stretch along the ridge leads to magnificent views of the surrounding valleys and peaks, including Maladeta.

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.

This pretty loop was the mountain biking training ground of our local champion Élodie, French junior champion in 2001 and 2002. On foot, you will have time to enjoy this route, which will take you to viewpoints overlooking the valley, where you may be lucky enough to spot numerous deer in this area.

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.

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

A very pretty early winter circuit to be done on foot or snowshoes depending on the snow conditions. Its good south-eastern exposure allows you to walk in the sun, which is appreciated in cold weather. A very picturesque hike through the village, beautiful beech forests and the sumptuous panorama from the summit.

A lovely, fairly challenging hike offering views of the Pyrenees.Part of the hike is along the border ridge. A good sense of direction, a GPX track and a map are strongly recommended.

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

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.

This hike, which has no major difficulties, will be great fun to do in autumn in the midst of an explosion of colour. You'll discover superb beech forests, impressive pidgeon hunting huts, a beautiful view of the Pic du Cagire, the Garonne valley and the first Pyrenean peaks dominating the Barousse.

Une mise en jambe sympathique, à travers la forêt tout du long, pour découvrir la vallée. Plusieurs points particuliers, passerelle, tour, cascade et fontaine, émaillent le parcours, dont une surprenante Fontaine d'Amour qu'il ne faut pas rater (bien faire attention au panneau) pour commencer à comprendre l'histoire de la région.

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".

This hike is not particularly difficult, apart from a slightly steep climb during the first kilometre, and offers superb views of the Luchonnais mountain pastures (sheep, cows, horses), the climb to Vénasque and the Crête de la Pique.

This is undoubtedly one of the most beautiful hikes in the Pyrenees. The climb is long and difficult, but the panoramic views will make you forget your aching legs. Once past the azure blue Boums du Port, the Port de Venasque fault offers the most beautiful balcony overlooking the Maladeta and its lord, the Aneto. The Port de la Picade with its superb panoramic views, the Pas de l'Escalette and the Crabidès ridge complete this unforgettable hike.
