The Col du Tourmalet is located in the center of the ski resort. The Tour de France has made the highest pass road in the French Pyrenees famous. In the winter, the pass is closed and the slopes lead alongside it. A highlight is the well-known Pic du Midi de Bigorre with its observatory and impressive panorama. A cable car lift goes up in two sections from La Mongie to the Pic du Midi (2877 m). There are no official ski slopes leading from the Pic du Midi. It is exclusively freeride territory.
Note: The openening times are provided by the ski resort Grand Tourmalet/Pic du Midi – La Mongie/Barèges and can vary based on external conditions, day of the week, school holidays and public holidays.
