Second part of the High Pyrenees with the Basque Country. A trip that continues our trip from 2023, which we ended in Cirque Garvernie due to bad weather. This is described on https://www.frankreich-in-wort-und-bild.de/wohnmobiltouren/wohnmobilreise-in-die-hoch-pyren%C3%A4en-sommer-2023-seite-1/
Now we're going back to Cirque de Gavernie on this trip to continue the trip there.
Another trip from the Mediterranean to Mont Louis, just before Andorra, in the Pyrenees is described here: https://www.frankreich-in-wort-und-bild.de/wohnmobil-touren/s%C3%BCdfrankreich-okzitanien-2/

Cauterets Parkplatz Pont
Parking lot for the Pont d'Espagne. Here there is a cable car (for Marianne) up to the top of the actual Pont d'Espagne (there is also a restaurant there). I drive on to the Lac and then hike the path to Lac de Gaube.
Costs for parking, Puntas cable car and Gaube chairlift €16.00 per person. (See printout)
Time required: cable car and chair lift 20 minutes. Hike to the lake 15 minutes. Then walk to the Pont d'Espagne. Plan 3 - 4 hours in total. If you only want to see the waterfalls at the Pont d'Espagne, you don't need the cable car and chair lift. You can also hike from the car park to Lac de Gaube, but you'll need a whole day for everything. It was definitely one of the highlights of the trip.

Col de Spandelles
Our original plan to go over the Col de Soulor was not possible due to a total closure (landslide). So we went over the Col de Spandelles, which is very narrow in many places and hardly suitable for large motorhomes over 7 meters. We were very sorry because the originally planned trip would certainly have been even more scenic. This meant that the Gourette waypoint was also canceled.

Gîte d'Etape de Lhers
We went to the campsite near Lescun, which really offers everything for €10. A wonderful landscape from which you can go on lots of hikes. Electricity costs an extra €4. But included is a sanitary facility with showers, toilets, washrooms, etc. The cleanliness here is absolutely perfect, something you rarely see at campsites. Of course, fresh water and waste disposal are also included. Can really be recommended.

We visited the place that is said to be one of the most beautiful villages in the Pyrenees because of its location. It is simply stunning, there are very few tourists and it offers fabulous hikes in the Cirque de Lescun.
For us it would be another goal for the future.
In Lesun you can only park on the outskirts of the town GPS: 42.931456 -0.636726. There is also a campsite (see below) in Lescun towards Cirque, which is also beautifully situated.

Excursion ticket
An authentic cog railway from 1924 takes you to the summit of La Rhune at an altitude of 905 m in 35 minutes.
La Rhune is a nature reserve and is home to a particular flora and fauna such as the griffon vulture, but also the pottok (Basque pony) which lives freely on the massif. Let yourself be seduced by the beauty of nature while walking on the immense plateau of the summit of La Rhune!
Duration: total 2h30:
35 minutes ascent
1h20 stop at the summit
35 min. descent
As the weather had already changed that evening, we decided not to make the trip the next day. And this train ride certainly couldn't top the previous tour to Lac d'Artouste. However, we did spend the night in the parking lot further back and it was very quiet.

The pitch is about 100-150 metres from the sandy beach. It has waste disposal, fresh water and electricity, costs €16.88
What I didn't like was the fresh water right next to the toilet flush, a real disadvantage. Luckily, we didn't need fresh water.

We enjoyed the beach and the sea here. We had a two-day delay because the bad weather followed the next day.
There is a beach bar right in front of the pitch on the beach where you can also get food in the evening. At the time we were there there was even a small party with music and a 3-course meal
