Summer to autumn…the times they are a changing…

Summer to autumn…the times they are a changing…

Summer 2013 has been a memorable one. We started with the unforgettable Tour de France week cycling holiday, where our cyclists and walkers alike were swept up in the excitement of watching professionals at the top of their game rush past us in a blur of wheels, colour and cheering. For those of you that may have missed it, did we mention there were three Brits on the podium? Just worth mentioning again! At the same time as the Tour whizzed through, our High Pyrenean Route (HRP) trekkers began their ascent in to the mountains, some of them only coming out again to collect more people on what could be a three week epic.

We then began our summer of multi-activity holidays, thrilling, scaring and encouraging all ages as they discovered new skills, new abilities and just how versatile and great the High Pyrenees are (on both the French and Spanish sides).

Thank you to everyone who has joined us this summer for walking, trekking, cycling, and multi-activity holidays. It’s been great to meet you all and we hope to welcome you back sometime soon.

Autumn is now slowly creeping in as the leaves are starting to turn but the sun has turned the heat up again. It is exceptionally gorgeous hiking weather and we’re pleased to welcome our Discoverer level hikers this week. They are heading out on a three day mini-trek to the Neouvielle Lake District on Wednesday for a three day mini-trek, led by MountainBug guide and Director, Rob Mason.

We’ve four more weeks of hiking and walking holidays left, and of course accommodation only options, so do get in touch if you want a last minute breath of fresh air in some stunning scenery.

Last week’s Multi-Activity guests had loads of fun and we even remembered to take our cameras with us to get some photos.There is a full gallery of them on our Facebook page and some from the week before (last week of August). We are currently compiling a Multi-Activity photo gallery, so please do email us your photos from your time here.
