There are mountain villages that capture your heart as soon as you set foot in them. Loudenvielle is one of them. Nestling in the hollow of the Louron valley, mirrored by Lake Génos-Loudenvielle and the immaculate peaks that dominate it, this village of character forges an intimate bond with those who discover it. Old stone buildings, lively little streets, a gentle mountain atmosphere: here, the mountains are experienced in depth, with family, friends or in search of a soothing break.
This corner of the valley knows how to capture the moment. Breakfast facing the peaks, the light gliding over the water in the morning, footsteps crunching on the fresh snow, the breath calming in the hot baths next door at Balnéa. Every stay becomes a pause, a breath of fresh air, a return to basics.
A finish suspended in mid-air
The magic happens right from the start, with Skyvall. This modern cable car links the village to Peyragudes in just a few minutes, offering a silent journey over the forests and lake.
More than just a means of transport, it's a flying experience that sets the tone for a long-lasting, fluid and panoramic holiday.
Opening in 2019, Skyvall has revolutionised access to the ski area, already replacing more than 233,400 car journeys.
An environmental feat - 1,073 tonnes of CO₂ saved - and a major step forward for a resort that combines the pleasure of skiing with soft mobility.
Since 2025, the system has been further enhanced, with increased throughput and more intuitive flow management, making the round trip as easy as breathing.
A hotel designed as a warm refuge
In the heart of the village, the Mercure Peyragudes-Loudenvielle-Pyrénées is a 4-star hotel with modern mountain charm.
With its wooded ambience, warm colours and soft lighting, this is a place where elegance meets simplicity, in the spirit of a real, welcoming mountain.
Families will appreciate the dedicated areas and flexible rooms. Groups will find this a friendly base camp.
And those who discover the village as a couple will enjoy the cosy atmosphere, spa, terrace lounge bar and generous cuisine that celebrates local produce and the seasons.
In winter and summer alike, the hotel balances premium comfort with local connections. It accompanies hikers back from the summits, welcomes skiers off the slopes, and invites everyone to extend the day by the stove, with a glass of Pyrenean wine in hand.
Because Loudenvielle isn't just a village, it's a living valley. Snow sports and thermal baths, Nordic activities, local gastronomy, cultural events, evenings by the fireside, children's laughter in the snow... Everything invites you to savour the moment.
