GR®10

Great Traverse of the Pyrenees

From Atlantic to Mediterranean

GR®10 La Grande traversée des Pyrénées

The GR®10 is a captivating hiking trail spanning the French Pyrenees from Hendaye to Banyuls-sur-Mer, providing an extraordinary journey of approximately 900 km. It meanders through natural reserves like the Pyrenees National Park and the Ariégeoises Pyrenees Regional Natural Park, showcasing a spectrum of landscapes from the lush forests of the Basque Country to Béarn’s verdant valleys, the rugged Bigorre mountains, and the serene hills of Luz-Saint-Sauveur. The trail’s zenith is at the Fourcat refuge, standing tall at 2,445m. Celebrated for its natural splendor and awe-inspiring panoramic vistas of the Pyrenees, the GR®10 offers a comprehensive exploration of Pyrenean flora, encompassing the high-altitude “gispet” lawns, rhododendrons, blueberries, heathers, beech forests, and hook pines. It also serves as a vantage point for observing diverse wildlife, including the majestic bearded vultures and capercaillie.
