In a few words

In the heart of the Pyrenees , this trip is for experienced hikers dreaming of reaching the mythical peaks of over 3,000 meters . Often compared to the 4,000-meter peaks of the Alps, the "Pyrenean 3,000-meter peaks" offer a spectacular playground for adventure where alpine hiking allows you to reach great altitudes in a magnificent, rocky landscape.

The route leads to several iconic peaks of the massif: Petit Vignemale (3,032 m) , Taillon (3,144 m) , Casque (3,006 m) , Tour (3,009 m) and Marboré (3,248 m) . The highlight of the adventure is the possible ascent of Monte Perdido (3,355 m) , the highest peak in the Pyrenean limestone massif, overlooking spectacular landscapes of cirques, ridges and high-altitude panoramas.

Thanks to optimized logistics and a relatively light pack , the days are designed to maximize the chances of reaching several of these peaks. Each stage combines effort, altitude gain, and immersion in the high mountains , in one of the most majestic sectors of the range.

A sporting challenge and a unique experience to fully experience the magic of the great Pyrenean peaks .

The highlights

  • Ascent of Pyrenean peaks over 3,000 m
  • Passing through the legendary Roland's Breach
  • Spectacular alpine hikes in the heart of the great Pyrenean cirques
