There are numerous hiking trails for all levels, from the easy walk to the Cirque to more strenuous treks to the Brèche de Roland or one of the nearby refuges.
The main reason people visit Gavarnie. This enormous glacial cirque is a breathtaking sight, with its towering rock walls and numerous waterfalls. A relatively easy 1.5- to 2-hour walk from the village takes you to the heart of the cirque and the base of the main waterfall.
At 422 m, this is one of the tallest waterfalls in Europe. The flow is most impressive in the spring and early summer when the snow is melting.
A spectacular natural gap in the cliffs of the cirque, on the border between France and Spain. It's a challenging hike to reach it, but the views are rewarding.
Open 09:00-12:00 and 14:00-17:00; closed Sundays and Thursdays.
