The Grand Tourmalet

Le Grand Tourmalet is the largest ski area in the French Pyrenees. On one side, the massif of La Mongie, at the foot of the slopes; on the other, the massif of Barèges and the atmosphere of an authentic Pyrenean village. With the Pic du Midi in its domain, and its freeride descent, the Grand Tourmalet guarantees great skiing.

In a nutshell

54 runs – 100 km (12 green, 23 blue, 15 red, 4 black)
1 fun area
6 mountain restaurants
1 spa centre
The Pic du Midi freeride descent (1,700 m vertical drop)

Pic du Midi

The Pic du Midi

and its cable car

Access from La Mongie station by cable car – Option to eat on site at the summit. The Pic du Midi offers daytime visits, stargazing evenings and overnight stays at the summit. Mountain biking is also available from the summit in summer.

The Pic du Midi cable car: simple, easy access to the highest peaks!

The Pic du Midi cable car takes passengers on a spectacular journey to the summit, at an altitude of 2,877 metres, where the 1,000 m² of terraces offer a 360° view of the Pyrenees, the great plains of the South West and the foothills of the Massif Central. The view is unique and the panorama exceptional.

But the Pic du Midi also boasts a valuable observatory for scientists, and thehighest museum in Europe, which passionately recounts the human epic of the construction of this exceptional site.
