Departure from Saint-Pé-de-Bigorre (Hautes-Pyrénées)
Just a stone’s throw from the village of Saint-Pé-de-Bigorre, this walk takes us along the trail of the massif’s caves, particularly those on a large hilltop, the Mountagnou de la Pale. The caves are dotted along this route as if laid out especially for the walker. We approach the gaping hole of the Gouffre du Hayau, whose unusual size and the draught of air coming in would surely draw you into its dark abyss, were you not careful...
This route was significantly altered in May 2024 by the creation of a new ‘karst trail’.

Departure from Asson (Pyrénées-Atlantiques)
On the forgotten trails of Saint-Pé-de-Bigorre No. 5A long journey from the Ouzom Valley, through Les Aoules, to the Génies Valley, in the unfathomable Saint-Pé massif.In all seasons, the landscapes and forests are impressive and majestic.Its main attraction lies in the beauty of the two valleys crossed from end to end: the Yerse and the Aguée, sites of ancestral pastoralism where shepherds and their flocks lived from June to October. There are still many traces of this to be found.

Departure from Arthez-d'Asson (Pyrénées-Atlantiques)
This walk is only suitable for walkers who are comfortable with steep and long climbs. This rarely used route offers a peaceful walk in absolute silence in the shade of the Monbula woods. You must first leave a car at the finish point on the D126, on the left-hand side of the road, and then walk to the Aoules car park. The walk can be done in either direction, but the descent towards Ferrières will be easier.
