Cheustのおすすめ登山＆山歩きルート

For your information, historically this was the arrival station for the cable car. It operated until the installation of the television and radio relay. After a storm, it's not uncommon for the relay to go into standby mode. TDF has a contract that runs from Monday to Friday. In case of a power outage, the weekend is reserved for reading or playing board games.

nice relaxing hike (down the mountain) not far from Lourdes

hike to do in dry weather, with a magnificent view of the Pic du Jer at the summit

Nice view. Very crowded.

The Jer peak peaks at 948 meters, overlooking the emblematic city of Lourdes. Also accessible by funicular, it offers a superb view of the city and its valley.

Magnificent view over the plain and the Gaves valley. On the other hand, it is not an old luxury hotel at the top, but the old cable car station. There is indeed a project to transform it into a shelter, but the funding is not forthcoming.

Magnificent viewpoint once at the top but DO NOT take the route that leaves from Parking Boissarie!! From the old cable car down to the river the hiking trail no longer exists. No choice but to go down but in the middle of brambles, nettles and a few slips. As the old hiking trail is no longer maintained, it has become dangerous. With the "good" surprise of coming face to face with hunters...

This is BY FAR the WORST route I have ever walked there. This so-called "walking path" is a 10 cm narrow dirt furrow that the cows use. What I have never had before is that a path is drawn that is qua non-existent. I was standing in front of a rocky cliff while descending and had two options 1. Call a helicopter 2. Somehow get down there without sustaining life-threatening injuries. I then slid almost 20 meters down the slope with my butt first. It should be mentioned in passing that the remaining “paths” are completely overgrown with nettles, small fir trees and other thorny plants. I cut myself EVERYTHING and can only hope I don't end up in the hospital with a tetanus infection. Please, please people, AVOID this route at ALL costs.
