Beautifully situated, this gîte invites you to stop off. It is not right on the TMB, so it does not seem so crowded. If you want to rest briefly (or long), you can plan this little "detour" very well.

Beautiful vantage point and another great viewing point.

Small cottage set back from the high traffic of the TMB. Don't hesitate to take a tour, or use it as a base during a roaming hike. In addition, it provides access to the Petit Col Ferret trail, which is less frequented than its big brother.
