Pic Du Midi

Pic du Midi in the Hautes-Pyrénées. An exceptional destination in high mountain for the holidays and the weekends: families, tourist groups, school outings, events and seminars of companies. All year long, access for all by cable car from La Mongie, at feet of the Col du Tourmalet. At the summit the most beautiful panorama of the Pyrenees, a museum on the astronomy and the history of the Pic du Midi, a Planetarium, a traditional restaurant of altitude. Mountain bike downhill.

We saw this crazy place on Tour de France footage, and so made the effort to get there. We absolutely loved it. Everything we were hoping it would be!

Grotte de la Salamandre

Welcome to the Kingdom of the Giants of Cristal. Come and enjoy four possible ways to visit the cave: the wheelchair-accessible lookout point, the fascinating guided tour, the Grand Rappel (50m abseiling), and the "Backstage of the Grotte de la Salamandre" (caving in the hidden galleries). On each of the visits, one will discover an enormous cave full of crystals staged with lighting and sound effects. On the outside, a beautifully designed wooden structure houses both a boutique selling original articles and a cafe that opens out onto a terrace where one can enjoy delicious products while taking in a spectacular view of a nature reserve. New in 2017: an adventure course secured by nets which allows to let the children evolve in complete autonomy and in total safety!

Tour Carbonniere

Reviewed By 18philippeb - Toulouse, France

This tower dates back to the 14th century and used to be the first defensive building of Aigues-Mortes, a very important French port by this time. Nowadays, there’re at least three reasons to visit this place. The tower itself standing alone in the middle of nowhere, the view you have on the Camargue once you climb up at the top, and the short walk you can make in the surroundings seeing waterfowl or bulls...

It’s a picture frame on the beach. Makes for a great photo opportunity. The frames are placed so they perfectly frame your shot... And who wouldn’t want beautiful photos of this lovely bustling seaside village.

Pic de Nore

Reviewed By Phil063325

Easy climb from Villeneuve (for an experienced cyclist!). But from Lastours it is hell, very steep stretches. It's called "Le petit Ventoux" and it does ressemble a bit, especially during the last few km. It can be very windy as well on the top. During our way back down we had a stop at "Bar Restaurant Le Petit Pradellois", the only place on the 20 km long climb where you can actually drink and eat something outside on a terrace. This part of France is not as well-known as the Provence but the Montagne Noire is heaven for cycling.
