We drove from our overnight spot at Gave de Brousset to Camping Pyrénées Natura where we camped overnight and the next day we headed up to Cauterets. From here we caught the cable car and then a chair lift up the mountain, using skiing infrastructure that is running over the summer months to ferrying hikers to a drop off spot. From here we hiked the rest of the way up to the beautiful Lac De Gaube where we had a beer in the busy lakeside cafe and a picnic whilst being hassled by the bad tempered, but pretty cows. Then we hiked down the mountain back to Cauterets via the Point D’Espagne and Cascade du Ceriset.
