Le lac du Lurien

The Lurien valley and its lake are among the rare privileged places that have kept the wild character of the Ossau mountains. The steep path in the forest dissuades walkers and leaves this mountain to hikers.

The Lurien valley and its lake are among the rare privileged places that have kept the wild character of the Ossau mountains. The steep path in the forest dissuades walkers and leaves this mountain to hikers. It is thus with the steps of the mountaineer that it is necessary to go up this small valley which becomes increasingly narrow and sinuous with the progression.



How to get there

Reach Pau (Pyrénées Atlantiques), follow signs for Zaragoza as far as Gan, then take the D934 towards Laruns, Gourette, Spain (Col du Pourtalet), Col d'Aubisque. On leaving Laruns, follow signs for Spain. Continue to Lac de Fabrèges. Turn left towards Artouste. Start the hike at the first paravalanche.
