October 12, 2025,Boucle Bourg d'Oueil- lac de Borderes - pic du Lion

A superb loop offering magnificent panoramas of the Pic du Midi and the Balconies du Luchonnais from the Col de Pierrefitte. You then reach the splendid Lac de Bordères, nestled in the heart of the nature reserve—be careful, dogs are prohibited.
