Small clarification, an hourquette designates in Gascon, a succession of passes whose silhouette forms a fork. The term is mainly used in Pyrenean toponymy.

Turon du Nèouvielle
Highlight • Summit
Very nice day tour (No. 29) from Refuge de Glere to the summit at just over 3000m. Many lakes to fall in love with and linger.
Fantastic all-round view on the summit.

A slightly airy section, but not dangerous, continue to the Bassia lake in summer and without snow only. Reputed to be very avalanche-prone.

The milestones reach the block niches installed at the head of the circus, below the Brecha de Chausenque. These catastrophic and desolate-looking places are the result of forceful glacial events and it is easy to imagine what the massif looked like when it was covered by great masses of living ice, when the mountain was baptized “old snow”. The path heads south and completes the ascent to the top. At the end of the season it is possible to find some residual snow before the final climb. The normal entrance to the summit follows a chimney channel on the south face that requires the use of hands but without ice it does not present any difficulty. The summit is small and steep but has great views.

La hourquette d'Aubert, which rises to an altitude of 2,498 meters, offers a beautiful overview of the Néouvielle reserve. It marks the end of your courageous ascent from Barèges, and the beginning of the descent towards the lakes. Those of Aubert and Aumar will open the ball. Small clarification, an hourquette designates in Gascon, a succession of passes whose silhouette forms a fork. The term is mainly used in Pyrenean toponymy.
