Fancy a French day hike to start things off smoothly? Indeed, we will gradually ascend in level of difficulty throughout this article, beginning with the shortest one of them all, The Lac d’Arremoulit trail.
The aim of this mesmerising 2.5 hour hike is to trail up to the Arremoulit mountain refuge at a staggering 2,305 metres in altitude in the French Pyrenees National Park. A sight not to be missed! You will be blown away by the magnifying beauty that will surround you throughout your ascent. In addition to over 3,000 plant and 4,000 animal species, this hike also features glacial lakes, floral meadows, caves, ravines, peaks, and valleys that will absolutely take your breath away. The best time to do this hike is from April to September, as you would avoid larger crowds and smoother trail conditions.
