Hiking
The Esplumouse waterfall, located at 1,949 meters above sea level, hurtles down the Gaube valley in a 90-meter-high waterfall.
From the top of the waterfall you are at the best spot to admire the valley and Lake Gaube. This breathtaking landscape gives a strong feeling of wide open spaces. The succession of moraines and clumps of fir and Scots pines create a picture worthy of the Sierra Nevada. But you are in the Pyrenees. Cock-a-doodle Doo !

Unfortunately, the waterfall can only be seen clearly from further down.

The Cascade d'Esplumouse are a beautiful waterfall on the way between the Lac de Gaube and the Refuge des Oulettes
