Straddling the Hautes-Pyrénées and Haute-Garonne, Peyragudes has established itself as one of the most dynamic resorts in the Pyrenees. A blend of modernity, nature and expertise, it combines the pleasure of skiing with sustainable innovation and an exemplary welcome. Here's why the resort is more than ever worth a visit this winter.
With more than 70 % of the ski area artificially snow-covered from 15 December to 30 March, Peyragudes ensures a long, trouble-free season.
Its new snow factory, one of the most modern in the Pyrenees, optimises production while reducing water and energy consumption.
The result: constant snow cover, impeccable pistes and a quality of skiing that is acclaimed by skiers.
The ski area, which stretches from 900 to 2,400 metres above sea level, has 48 runs (7 green, 22 blue, 14 red and 7 black) and 11 lifts. Enough to satisfy beginners and experts alike, with the added bonus of new fun runs for families.
A mountain of innovation and commitment
Peyragudes is one of the pioneering resorts in the "Cap 2030" programme, with an ambitious goal: carbon neutrality by 2037.
All its snow groomers already run on HVO biofuel, the chairlifts stop during off-peak periods to save energy, and the new-generation snow guns adapt automatically to the weather conditions.
The resort is setting an example: produce better, consume less, while guaranteeing impeccable ski quality.
A family-friendly resort
Peyragudes has been awarded the Famille Plus label and is a destination where everything is done to ensure that young and old alike can experience the mountains at their own pace.
