Escape far away from everything for 2 days, with donkeys carrying your bivouac kit and food. Discover the mounatin environment at your own pace, set up a bivouac in the middle of nowhere, spend a great evening under the stars by a nice fire, enjoy the donley's company, admire breathtaking panoramas... That's pretty much the program of your trip! Nice, huh?

Discover life in the middle of nature and live a great adventure!

Thanks to its location, the massif of Hautacam offers an outstanding view on the Pyrenees mountain range and especially on the following famous summits: Pic du Midi de Bigorre, Vignemale, Balaitous, Cirque de Gavarnie and brèche de Roland...what a breathtaking panorama!
Scattered with mountain pastures, this place is a meeting point for sheeps, cows and horses who can graze in complete freedom. Here and there, you'll run into a shepherd's hut, a very basic habitat but so precious at such altitudes when the wind starts blowing and the rain starts falling... The wild and preserved massif of Hautacam is a mise en abyme of the wonderful Pyrenees!
