Escaladieu Abbey was a Cistercian monastery located in the town of Bonnemazon, in the Hautes-Pyrénées, in the Occitanie region. The abbey was an important stopover for all the pilgrims of Compostela who took the Chemin du Piedmont.
Mauvezin castle dominates the entire Toulouse-Bayonne road from its crenellated keep. The inner courtyard is a perfect example of medieval military architecture, in which replicas of war machines are exhibited.
You can visit the castle during your hike!
Small road pass, at an altitude of 810 meters, which allows entry into the Pyrenees Baronnies from Bagnères-de-Bigorre. Little borrowed, with a beautiful coating.
