Explore the Pyrenees - guided walking holiday



Discover the very best of the Pyrenees on a guided walking holiday based from the high mountain village of Bareges - the perfect way to explore the Pyrenees.

We have three different levels of guided walking holiday, and there is something to suit all abilities:

Explore the Pyrenees "Gentle" level guided walking holiday - lakes and valleys, traditional mountain villages, ancient farms and barns, spas and markets, spring meadows, flora and fauna of the Pyrenees.

Explore the Pyrenees "Intermediate" level guided walking holiday - mountain lakes, ridges, dramatic cirques, hidden valleys and towering peaks. Hike from pretty villages to remote refuges.

Explore the Pyrenees Adventure "Advanced" level guided walking holiday - tackle the highest 3000m peaks. Airy ridges, challenging climbs and scrambles. Hut-to-hut treks between mountain refuges on and off-path in the wildest areas of the Pyrenees.

Hut-to-hut trekking adventure holidays are also available for experienced hikers (see our separate listing).

Our holidays are led by qualified International Mountain Leaders, who live and work in France year round and are experts on the Pyrenean flora & fauna, geology, geography, history, language and culture.

Accommodation for your guided walking holiday is at our own lovely 3* guesthouse, with spacious en-suite bedrooms and delicious local cuisine.

We have small groups (8 people or less), so our trips are very sociable, but you won't get lost in a noisy coach party!
