At the foot of the famous cirque, between villages and fir trees, tobogganing is one of the simple pleasures of winter in Gavarnie-Gèdre. The gentle slopes, breathtaking views and mountain ambience give every descent a whiff of adventure, with no technical complexity. Young and old share moments of real laughter, with powder snow slipping under the skates and Pyrenean light warming the cheeks.

Renting a toboggan at Gavarnie Gedre is ideal for a half-day of tobogganing fun. Check out the dedicated areas near the snow front and the marked areas near the village, perfect for families. Mornings after a snowfall offer the best sensations; at the end of the day, the light becomes superb over the cirque, but the snow can settle.
