Skiing and water cures

discover a new resort every day

The Hautes-Pyrénées region includes a third of the resorts in the Pyrenean massif, and these resorts have everything one might need to spend a memorable skiing holiday.

The highest resorts offer a high-quality snow cover throughout the season.

Why not stay in a comfortable hotel in the Marian city and discover a new resort every day.

Health and fitness

The Hautes-Pyrénées exploit, in 8 water cure towns, more than 100 springs: hot springs (between 40°C and 50°C), cold, sodic, alkaline, carbonic and sulphate waters... to treat various health complaints.

The water cure towns of the Gaves valleys have kept a tradition of well-being, thanks to entirely modernised equipment which offer not only water cures but also high-quality fitness programmes:
