Birdwatching & Wildlife
We have specialised for many years in bird watching holidays and have a specific interest in vultures. We are also within the distribution range of many Mediterranean species: Bee-eaters, Hoopoe, Golden Oriole in Summer, Wallcreepers & Crag Martins in Winter. Cranes are part of a mass migration in Spring & Autumn. Not only is there a huge variety but also quantity of birds, especially raptors. A true symbol of the high mountains, the Bearded Vulture is a permanent resident in the French Pyrenees. We support local vulture conservation initiatives.
Hiking in the Pyrenees.
Sat astride the GR36/GR367A, the variants of the Chemin de Cathare and the Tour des Fenouillèdes, our house was once a gite de etape. These routes are still frequented by walkers, cyclists and horse riders. We have many years experience walking in the Pyrenees and we are happy to pass on our best tips during your stay. From family-friendly circular walks to high refuges, there is an abundance of walking options, both locally and within about 1.5 hours drive. Professional Guides, accommodation, GR10 support, equipment, route planning, transport can be arranged on request. I can accompany you on day hikes.
