Hiking Guide - Val d'Azun, 14 Walks and Hikes | Rando Editions

14 walks and hikes for all levels to discover the Val d'Azun.
In the heart of the Pyrenees National Park, in a 100% green, eco-friendly, responsible, and above all sustainable environment, where peaks reach the sky at over 3,000 meters above sea level, an XXL territory opens up – the Gavarnie Valleys – where nature rules and sets the tone.
In these lands where waterfalls, torrents, lakes, and glacial cirques have carved the landscape, people have always had a deep desire to live in harmony with the horizons jagged with peaks, the meadows sown with lush grass, and the valleys brightened by tightly packed villages.
From Argelès-Gazost to Barèges passing through Cauterets, the Val d’Azun and Luz-Saint-Sauveur, this territory is full of gems. Here, the Great Sites of Occitanie rub shoulders with those listed as UNESCO World Heritage Sites.
This mini-collection of walking and hiking guides dedicated to the Gavarnie Valleys begins with 4 titles: Val d’Azun and Vallée d’Argelès-Gazost – Hautacam (published in 2022) and Cauterets and Itinérances en Vallées de Gavarnie (published in 2023).
- The “official” Gavarnie Valleys guides are produced in partnership with the Pyrénées Vallées des Gaves Community of Communes.
- A very touristy sector.
The Pyrénées Vallées des Gaves Community of Communes is responsible for the management and maintenance of hiking trails partially within its territory (Val d’Azun, Vallée d’Argelès-Gazost, Cauterets) and develops communication tools for his hikes.
