Gaube Lake is accessible from the Pont d’Espagne in Cauterets. This is a legendary Pyrenees lake, thanks to its idyllic setting and breathtaking scenery. You can choose to hike alone, following the markers for the Gaube Lake itinerary, but you can also bring an accredited guide, who can tell you anecdotes and stories of events took place at this incredible location.
This easy hike allows everyone to roam the mountain in protected, safe countryside, and reach the lake having accomplished the day’s mission. What’s more, if you prefer, you can take the chairlift for the ascent and then you will only have 15 minutes left to walk. Dogs are only allowed to access the site by chairlift. On the way up, just look around you to see the Pyrenean animal and plant life, and if you’re lucky, you might see marmots, the representatives of the Pyrenees. You and your family are sure to treasure these memories forever.
