The Pic du Midi de Bigorre is a peak in the French Pyrenees culminating at 2,876 meters above sea level.

Open all year round, its 600 square meter terrace offers an exceptional panorama of the Pyrenees chain. There is also an astronomical observatory, a television relay and a restaurant.

Old road to the Pic du Midi de Bigorre

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

A path that climbs, all the time but gently up to an intersection, you choose to continue up to the refuge or even up to the Pic du Midi or else turn left and descend towards the Lac d'Oncet. Mountain lake which is not whitewater so with cold but not freezing temperatures. Superb walk with vultures, eagles, marmots but for them better have binoculars, although you will certainly hear them.
