The hautes pyrenees by monique

"The Hautes Pyrenees are like a theme park : one plays, laughs... just enjoying being together"

Tell us about your Hautes Pyrenees.
A fabulous outdoor playground. Everywhere there are walks to discover the area, lots of activities to entertain oneself, to share special family moments together. But also lots of services and great plans which make holiday planning so simple. In short all you need for a great family holiday.

The perfect fun-filled weekend for the family?
It has to include lots of fun! A lovely chambre d'hotes with a large room for all the family. During the day a visit to an animal park to feed the marmots, a lovely stroll, thrills at a tree top adventure park and swimming. And one must not forget a delicious hot chocolate with myrtille pancakes.

Your favourite plan for an esay and successful holiday?
I would choose a large house in one of the valleys where all the family can gather and the children can play in the garden. My favourite plan to guarantee that nobody gets bored is the Louron Pass. This allows entry to a whole range of activities at preferential rates and gives unlimited access to the water park. The children will love playing in the many pools whilst the parents can observe and relax in a sun lounger. Enjoy a stroll together towards the tiny villages around the lake with a picnic on the edge of a mountain stream.

What is your favourite family walk?
Start from Pont d'Espagne at Cauterets. Either take the chairlift or the footpath, depending on your energy levels, towards Lac de Gaube. A lovely picnic, it's a great play area for the children, build some dams then seek out some raspberries and myrtilles on the descent.

What would you suggest for a family winter holiday?
"I can organise everything! Depending on your budget and desires, I will choose your accommodation : village vacances with children's club, or a large house, or an apartment at the foot of the ski slopes... you decide. For the rest I will send you your ski passes to your home before departure (or they can be delivered to you chosen accommodation), I can book ski school for the children, ski hire for all the family, and even add a few entries to the local spa baths, an outing on snowshoes or a ride on a dog sled. So upon arrival all is ready, all you have to do is put your skis on! These are our all-included family holidays!"

Your ideal weekend to enjoy the snow?
It has to be the Val d'Azun! Your children will love the Nordic Park and its toboggan run, it's so easy, the moving carpet takes you and your sled back to the top in just 5 minutes. Then let's have a snowball fight between parents and children, then let's see who can build the best snowman. That is my perfect snowy weekend.
