active pyrenees not only offers fantastic Skiing & Snowboarding in the Pyrenees, France but also the chance to experience all the other great activities that the mountains present during winter. If you enjoy holidaying in the mountains during the summer and are tempted to try something different then come and discover the magic of the snow-covered Pyrenees with a Winter Discovery Holiday.

If you choose a full week of skiing/snowboarding from Maison Coutet you will be rewarded with new magnificent scenery and a new challenge each day. This region has a very good snow record with our local weather station at Pic du Midi recording on average 118 days snowfall per annum.

Fantastic adrenalin fuelled holidays for those who also like their comforts in life! Whether you want to raft down the Noguera Pallaresa with friends and family, parapent over Valleé de la Pique or Bungee Jump at Mas d’Azil you are always safe in the knowledge that you have great accommodation to return to at the end of each day.

Unwind and refuel with a delicious 4 course meal, a drink and a view before falling contently exhausted into bed. If all this sounds a bit tiring spend a few days lounging by the pool - even adventure junkies need a break sometimes!

Indulge your passion for fly-fishing with a tailor made holiday from active pyrenees. Fly-fish in local trout rivers and in the plentiful mountain lakes that are particular to this area. The fishing is great value with permits in particular considerably cheaper than elsewhere, (only €30 for a 15 day tourist permit).

We also organise all the particulars for your trip, provide all your transfers and even picnics if you desire. In addition, non-fishing partners and family are very welcome, the swimming pool and garden are lovely places to relax and we can organise other activities.

The Pyrenees are a land steeped in history with awe-inspiring landscapes and architecture. Old castles sit proudly on rocky outcrops, little villages cling defiantly to the edges of valleys and lonely farmhouse ruins intimate at poignant romantic pasts.

With on average 300 days of sunshine per annum, thousands of kilometres of marked trails, an abundance of rivers, lakes & waterfalls, fascinating flora & fauna, picturesque villages and charming little mountain restaurants, walking holidays are a delight in the Pyrenees. At active pyrenees we have the perfect combination of tailor made holidays, in a fantastic location with attractive accommodation and facilities.
