There are three main trekking routes across the Pyrenees from coast to coast:
\nof these, the Pyrenean Haute Route (or HRP for Haute Route Pyr\u00e9n\u00e9enne) is the
\nmost challenging – and arguably, the most spectacular. Unlike the GR10 and
\nGR11, it is not waymarked and borders on mountaineering at times, sticking as
\nclosely as possible to the main ridge.<\/p>\n
It stretches 750km from the Atlantic resort of Hendaye to Banyuls-sur-Mer on
\nthe Mediterranean, crossing the French-Spanish border many times on its
\ntraverse. The hike calls for experience, navigational competence and self-
\nreliance, but offers rich rewards as you pass through some of the most
\nstunning landscapes the region has to offer. <\/p>\n
This guide presents the Pyrenean Haute Route in 44 day stages, which are
\ndivided between five sections: since each section starts and finishes at a
\nlocation accessible by public transport, they can be walked individually if
\nyou don’t have a spare month-and-a-half for a complete thru-hike. Although the
\nroute offers excellent opportunities for wild camping, each stage finishes at
\na mountain hut or village, meaning that you can sleep under a roof every night
\nif you prefer. Clear route description is accompanied by 1:100,000 mapping. <\/p>\n
There are bad weather variants and alternatives to avoid the most technical
\nsections, and the guide also includes optional ascents of 10 classic summits,
\nincluding Vignemale, Pic du Taillon and the highest peak in the Pyrenees, Pico
\nde Aneto. You’ll also find helpful advice on travel to and from the route,
\nequipment and safety. <\/p>\n
From the rolling green foothills of the Basque Country to High Pyrenean
\nlandscapes of aquamarine lakes nestled among 3000m peaks, the scenery is as
\nvaried as it is beautiful. Highlights include the karst terrain of Pic d’Anie,
\nthe Ossoue glacier, Lac de Mar in the picturesque Val d’Aran and the dramatic
\nCirque de Gavarnie with its towering cascade. <\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
