Cauteret

You're sure to fall under the spell of charming Cauterets, a small village nestled in the heart of the Pyrenees, at an altitude of 1,000 metres.

There you'll find everything you need for your ski rentals.

Once kitted out, you can access the Lys Ski Resort via a fast, comfortable cable car. In no time at all, you'll find yourself in the paradise of downhill skiing and snowboarding. You'll have the pleasure of skiing on natural snow.

Within the nearby National Park, you'll discover our "Little Canada": the Pont d'Espagne.

Marvel at the site's gigantic waterfalls and old forests home to chamois. There you can enjoy downhill skiing, cross-country skiing, snow-shoeing and sledding, in a calm, peaceful setting.

This extraordinary site is sure to delight visitors of all ages.

During the summer months, this area is ideal for family walks and hikes up to the high-mountain lakes and refuges. Be sure to admire the magnificent blue waters of Gaube Lake and the majestic Vignemale Glacier.

During the summer, the pistes of the Lys Ski Resort are a Mecca for downhill mountain bikers, who can rush down 1,500 thrilling metres

For hikers, the Lys ridges offer a superb panoramic view of the Pyrenees Mountains.

Of course, comfort follows effort: come relax at the Bains du Rocher, the fun new spa centre in Cauterets, or at the Aladin Odalys balneotherapy centre, both open in the winter and summer.

Finally, enjoy the village's warm, authentic atmosphere, with its shops, cafés, restaurants and traditional boiled sweets.
