Pont d'Espagne

A renowned natural site within the Pyrenees National Park, accessible by car or shuttle bus (and a gondola, see below). In winter, it's a paradise for cross-country skiing (36.5 km of tracks), snowshoeing, and winter hiking, with stunning frozen waterfalls. In summer, it's a primary starting point for numerous hiking trails, including the famous path to Lac de Gaube (approx. 1.5-hour walk one way). It also serves as a gateway for longer treks into the national park. Entrance to the site is usually free, but parking fees apply.
