First Steps in the Pyrenees
This page links to a series of entries that I’ve made about the Pyrenees mountains, with the aim of helping people who are thinking of exploring them for the first time. The area covered is the High Pyrenees between Lescun and Gavarnie. Not only is this stretch probably the most popular in all of the Pyrenees it is the stretch for which I have up-to-date-photographs.
As always, in mountain ranges, there are many other route options within this stretch. If you’ve got any other queries feel free to get in touch; I’ll be sure to help if I can.
