Pic de Néouvielle ou d'Aubery (3091m) walks

The Néouvielle massif is the highest massif in the Pyrenees entirely within France. The Pic du Néouvielle (3,091 m) is its emblem, although it is not the highest peak. That honour goes to the Pic Long (3,194 m). However, this plutonic summit, in the heart of the Néouvielle Regional Reserve, has nothing to envy its neighbour, in the middle of this lake-filled massif, where every lake is a marvel.Starting from Lac d'Aubert, the route is fairly easy, especially in spring and early summer when the snow in the north-east couloir is still thick and allows you to avoid the scree, and is fairly easy to follow.In the last section, you cross the area of the former Néouvielle glaciers, partially replaced by snowfields, scree slopes and large boulder fields.Finally, a short, easy climb up a chimney leads to the summit, where you can enjoy exceptional views of the surrounding area and the entire Pyrenees mountain range!
