Wellness and adventure experiences

Thermal spas

The thermal spa facilities in the central French Pyrenees are amongst the very best in France.

This wellness and adventure retreat package will include passes to the fabulous Balnea thermal spa which has the most stunning panoramic views of the surrounding high mountains. On a winter wellness holiday you’ll be blown away by that vista of snowy mountain peaks!

Soak up those views from the outdoors Japanese pools, enjoy the bubbles in the indoor Inca and Roman baths and maybe even enjoy an optional  massage or other relaxing spa treatment too.

Hammam

Experience the only natural hammam in the whole of Europe with its 100% humidity and 40C+ temperatures. Combined with a dip in the pool afterwards, it’s a unique and invigorating experience!

Yoga

A restorative yoga session will loosen up those tight muscles whilst meditative poses will reset those mental batteries. In summer, a yoga session beside a stunning mountain lake is a truly wonderful experience.

Snowshoeing

In winter, explore a winter wonderland on snowshoes in the company of a local guide. Away from the hustle of the ski resorts, the peace and quiet of this back to nature experience is sure to leave a profound effect on you.

SUP/lake kayak

In the summer months, take to the lake for a meditative session on an SUP or in a kayak and allow the peace of those tranquil mountain views to seep into your soul.

Mindful hiking

A warm sunny hike to a mountain lake is a slow adventure that will satisfy both body and soul and is, for many, the best mindful activity there is in the great outdoors.

On a guided hike with a knowledgeable local guide or even self-guided, practice mindfulness as you reconnect with Nature. Observe the most beautiful flora, scan the skies for birds of prey and take in the detail of a pristine mountain environment.

For the full digital detox experience, you can even opt for a night in a catered mountain refuge beside a picturesque mountain lake where a spot of wild swimming may be on the cards!

E-biking

Explore the tracks and trails of the beautiful Louron valley on an e-biking or regular MTB experience. There are trails for all abilities in the area and we’ll provide all the information you need to enjoy your spin on 2 wheels.

Paragliding

Available in winter as well as in summer, the most breathtaking views are guaranteed on a tandem paragliding flight. Such an experience surrounded by such jaw-dropping beauty can’t help but put life back in perspective.

Accommodation options

On this wellness and adventure retreat we’re offering two fabulous accommodation options.
