    By advancing to the very bottom of the circus, you can stand under the great waterfall of Gavarnie, 422 meters high.
    The many waterfalls of the circus are notably fed by the glaciers which rest under the ridge line: glaciers of the Brèche, the Helmet, the Shoulder, the Cascade, or the western glacier called the Marboré.
