  • Small and secluded Haute-Garonne site with stunning mountain views
  • Well placed for Pic du Gar climbs and Col des Ares walks
  • Run by an activity leader, with advice and excursions available
Up here in the Haute-Garonne, tucked in between the Pyrénées National Park and the Pyrénées Ariégeoises Regional Natural Park, is an excellent spot for those of you who like to fill your days with outdoor activities amid stunning scenery. Hiking, biking, rafting, climbing, canyoning, wild swimming – the options are plentiful in the area around Pyrénées Emotions, a small and secluded site surrounded by spectacular mountain views and close to the villages of Malvezie, Lourde and Ore. Not sure where to start with your adventures? No problem – the site has its own resident activity advisor in the form of Stefan, who runs the place with his wife Laetitia. He’s a qualified activity leader who runs rafting, canyoning and climbing trips in the summer months (for a minimum of four people) and is a mine of information when it comes to the best places to walk, cycle and swim nearby. It doesn’t all have to be go, go, go, though – there are plenty of more low-key ways to spend your days around here, and in between outings you’ll be able to chill out at this friendly and relaxed site, chatting to your hosts and fellow guests or simply taking time to soak up those gorgeous views. Laetitia and Stefan are on hand throughout the day to provide guests with all sorts of nice touches from freshly baked bread in the mornings to marshmallows for sociable evenings by the communal campfire. They also run a lovely little restaurant in a traditional mountain lodge, serving up continental breakfasts and three-course evening meals.

Powered grass and gravel site

Liked: Beautiful scenery, wildlife haven and a very quiet site. Loved the small family vibe and location

Disliked: No toilet waste, no fresh water fill for motorhomes and small tight pitch due to a tree stump in middle of pitch

Powered grass and gravel site

Liked: Incredibly beautiful setting.
Friendly and efficient staff.
Nice flat and spacious pitch with drying rack and bench table (makes a difference!)
Restaurant / bar with lovely atmosphere.
Clean and well maintained facilities.
Loads of play equipment for children - jungle gum, swings, trampoline, tight rope....
Amazing to have a bonfire area - super experience for everyone.
The communal stone BBQ and log saloon were much appreciated too.
The log chalet looked amazingly enchanting at night all lit up. Will hopefully book it next visit.
Super adventure add-ons available (rafting and canyoning) and situated on a prime cycle route.

Local attractions

Ready to get the blood pumping? There are lots of ways to get out and get active around here – perhaps taking one of the walking trails that runs from Col des Ares, scrambling up the Pic du Gar, navigating a raft down the white waters of the Garonne or swinging through the trees at Pyrénées Hô (15 minutes' drive). The swimming lake at Saint-Pé-d-Ardet (10 minutes’ drive/40 minutes’ walk) is a good place to cool off after your adventures. Time for a rest day? You can take things more slowly with wanders around nearby towns and villages, many of which have Belle Epoque architecture to look out for. The likes of Saint-Bertrand-de-Comminges (20 minutes’ drive) and Bagnères-de-Luchon (half an hour) are well worth a stroll. Elsewhere nearby, you could get underground for a tour of the Gargas caves (25 minutes), visit the gorgeous fairytale-like castle at Domaine de Valmirande (half an hour) or join the experts at Pays de l’Ours - ADET (35 minutes) to learn about their bear protection project.
