Located in the Pyrenees National Park at an altitude of around 2,100 metres, the glacial cirque of Troumouse is surrounded by high mountain walls and measures 4 km in diameter! This outstanding place is accessible by car from the hamlet of Héas, in the commune of Gèdre, via a road with a tollgate. From the final car park, a great 1-hour return walk takes visitors up to a viewpoint where a statue of the Virgin Mary is located. From this central point in the cirque, the panoramic view of the whole site is exceptional and the colours magnificent!
