La Mongie / Barèges Reviews

I find it regrettable that the Tourmalet snowshoe trail isn't open. The snow is good, the visibility is good too, but the resort isn't making the effort to open the snowshoe trail. It's a shame for those who want to go snowshoeing! Unfortunately, this is the case in some Pyrenean resorts where, in theory, there are trails, but they are rarely open.

• Ski area
• Après-ski or other activities

Beautiful resorts in a magnificent setting, but lacking snowshoeing and Nordic skiing trails.

• Well-prepared trails, scenery, commerce, transport
• There is little entertainment during the holidays and weekends for all ages.

This ski area, encompassing Barèges and La Mongie, is the largest in the Pyrenees, boasting 100km of slopes suitable for all levels (children's and beginner areas, freestyle, Nordic). Everything is in place for an unforgettable stay. From Barèges, a large free car park is available at the foot of the chairlift, allowing you to head out to La Mongie in the sunshine first thing in the morning. You'll be treated to an incredible panorama with a view of the famous Pic du Midi de Bigorre. In the afternoon, you can ski again in the sun, this time in Barèges, in a magical setting amidst the fir forest. After this intense and exhilarating day, there's nothing better than relaxing at the thermal baths. Finally, I highly recommend the restaurant La Coquelle; its setting is fantastic and the food is delicious. Be careful not to overindulge so you're in good shape the next day! I dream of returning for a longer stay to go snowshoeing and dog sledding.

• The largest ski area in the Pyrenees
• Nothing, we just need the weather to cooperate.

Very good resort

• Domain size and peak!
• A large green run for beginners is needed.

Overall, a good review. A comprehensive ski area with numerous slopes for all levels. However, prices are a bit high and don't adjust according to when the ski area is open. Within the village, there's a family-friendly atmosphere.

• A large ski area with slopes suitable for all levels. The ski area on the Barèges side is a real plus, offering a truly natural feel with its slopes winding through the fir trees.
• The village lacks activities, it's mostly geared towards families, and ski passes are relatively expensive.

great estate

• Beautiful estate
• Not enough black runs

Great resort for everyone

• Snowy fir trees, ski touring, Pic du Midi... everything is there!
• World

Pleasant village with shops and restaurants nearby. A very nice visit to the Pic du Midi.

A resort where everyone can find what they're looking for!

• Skiing the Pic du Midi
• The snowfall is now unpredictable

A wide variety of slopes; when there's snow, it's perfect for tree skiing or long descents.

• Super varied domain
• Snow conditions not always perfect, a bit crowded
