Gèdre
Set on the river of Gavarnie and Héas confluence, Gèdre (1,000 m) is a typical example of a rural mountain village where pastoral activities regulate day-to-day living. It is a lifestyle that the inhabitants will be happy to share with you.

Gèdre offers a stunning mountain environment : the Estaubé and Troumouse corries, the Bué valley and its lakes, and the Saugué plateau, an extraordinary viewpoint overlooking the Cirque of Gavarnie.

In the Héas valley, known for the tales and legends surrounding its Madonna and chapel, discover the Gloriettes dam and the Pragnères hydroelectric plant, one of the largest in Europe.
