Cycling
“Probably the best cycling location in the world” remarked one of our cycling guests, and it’s easy to see why. With THREE of the iconic Tour de France climbs to the left or right of our valley and all within an easy ride, what is not to like for the keen cyclist? Each year the Tour de France visits our region and sometimes even passes our front door! However, you do not have to be a professional level cyclist to enjoy this stunning landscape as there are rides to suit all in the beautiful Hautes Pyrenees.
Facilities for cyclists include secure bike storage, cleaning area and workstation.
adventure
water sports
Fishing, white water rafting, aqua-boarding, canoeing, canyoning… the list of outdoor activities is huge and varied. We can arrange these for you if desired. Please email us for more info.
snow adventure
winter sports
The nearest ski resort is St Lary Soulon (29 mins by car) and Peyragudes (30 mins to Skyvall lift) with Louron (40 mins), and Piau Engaly (50 minutes) also offering great snow in the winter. Nordic skiing and snow shoeing are even closer at nearby Nistos.
Wellbeing
Yoga and SPA
There is the opportunity for yoga retreats to Pyreneasy – one group will be coming from Russia this year and we look forward to welcoming more. The large party room lends itself to large group gatherings and seminars, and the many contemplative beauty spots with their tranquility and quiet are ideal for yoga. We can arrange private yoga lessons if required.
We are also fortunate to have many thermal spa towns in the vicinity and two fabulous Spa facilities close by: Edenvik, in nearby Capvern and Balnea in gorgeous Loudenvielle (where the new Skyvall cable car for Peyragudes ski resort departs).
RANDONÉES
Hiking and Walking
There are a number of spectacular hikes and walks in the local mountains. The national parks are amazing, but there are also many walks off the beaten track.
