Starting point
The barns of Moudang are located in the eponymous valley parallel to that of Rioumajou. At the exit of St Lary in the direction of Spain, you pass the road to Tramezaïgues and the hamlet of Eget-cité on the departmental road 929 and you arrive at the pont du Moudang, the start of the hike.
At this place is also located the famous“adventure course of Moudang” activity very popular with children and adults.
At the Pont du Moudang parking lot, the Neste de Moudang flows into the Neste d’Aure. This is the starting point of our hike.
Go towards the forest, the path is well indicated and accessible to people with reduced mobility. It gradually climbs into the woods where the shouts and laughter of the adventurers of the “suspended course” give way to the sounds of the river and the scent of the pines. You can also watch your friends and/or children having fun on the course.
The path runs alongside the river, providing a pleasant and very refreshing ambient temperature….the little ones will thank you!”
The valley of Moudang as well as that of Rioumajou are listed as “Natura 2000” sites to preserve its fauna and flora. These sites belong to the original chain of the high Pyrenees and rest on strongly folded grounds.
At the exit of the wood, the path leads to a wide sunny valley not far from the barns. You will notice the color of the rocks of the river below…they are ochre!”
But where can this come from? Follow me as I take you to discover the Queen’s springs.
