From grazing pastures in the summer to snowy fields in the winter, Barèges is an authentic mountain village tucked away in the depths of a wooded and sunny valley. This valley is a privileged location, at the foot of the Pic du Midi and the Col du Tourmalet, just a stone’s throw away from Gavarnie and Lourdes, on the cusp of the Néouvielle Reserve and the National Park.

The Domaine du Tourmalet ski slopes and the Ayré Forests at the top of the Pic du Midi are a must for fans of board-sports or snowshoe walking. In the summer, the forests and lakes are an ideal spot for walking and discovering the local wildlife. You can enjoy a whole host of leisure activities in all seasons, and recharge your batteries at the Thermal Baths.
