Location of the alpin ski area — Saint-Lary

Alpine ski area — Saint-Lary

The Saint-Lary ski area is one of the largest and most complete in the Pyrenees. With 100 km of runs across 100 hectares, it offers a unique skiing experience through its organisation into three distinct sectors, each with its own atmosphere and character. Saint-Lary 1700 (Pla d’Adet) is the sunny balcony of the resort, directly accessible from the village by the new gondola and cable car. It is the quintessential family sector with its ski-in ski-out base, children’s snow garden, Kidpark and numerous green and blue runs forming a safe and fun cocoon for beginners and children. The Espiaube sector (1,900 m) is a transition space plunging skiers into a more forested atmosphere — the realm of balade skiing and long descents with mythical runs like the blue Mirabelle (over 3 km). Intermediate and experienced skiers will find superb technical red runs winding through the firs. The Vallon du Portet sector (to 2,515 m) represents Saint-Lary’s high-mountain slope — wild and open with a 360-degree panorama over the Pyrenees National Park and the border range. It is the preferred playground of good skiers with engaged black runs, vast freeride possibilities and one of the best Pyrenees snowparks.
