Snowmobiling in La Mongie – Grand Tourmalet
No, the mountain in winter is not just about skiing. In Tourmalet-Pic du Midi, treat yourself by trying a new leisure activity: snowmobiling. If you’re a fan of motorised sports or a bit of a thrill-seeker, you’re going to love it!
Exciting and user-friendly
As soon as the ski lifts have stopped and the resort has closed, climb aboard a snowmobile! Set off to have a look around the lower part of the resort or Col duembark on an ascent of the legendary Col Tourmalet on one of these engines. Snowmobiles are very stable and easy to drive : you only need a category B licence to drive one. But you can also sit on the back and enjoy the thrills in a different way! Whether you’re a passenger or driving, you glide safely with experienced instructors and top-of-the-range equipment. Surrounded by snow-capped peaks, watch the resort’s lights turn on right in front of you…

Kids and teenagers can go too!
Kids can also try this fun activity. Children aged 6 and over will be able to try out the thrills of snowmobiling on a circuit. Older children will be able to ride adapted vehicles to get up a bit of speed across the snow. The snowmobiles offered have two seats, so it is easy to enjoy trips as a family or group. Outings vary from 10 minutes to 1 hour… Pure happiness, no matter how old you are!
Snowmobile evening with high-altitude dining
And if you want to head up to dine at the Etape du Berger, a snowmobile will be the ideal means of transport! Be amazed during an unreal ascent during sunset in the high mountains. Enjoy a dinner with your friends based on typical Pyrenees flavours in this high-altitude inn famed throughout the region. And head back down in the dark of night, gliding over the snow-capped mountains. All set for an unusual and unforgettable night-time excursion to the Col du Tourmalet? Then off you go!
