Saint-Lary - winter sports pleasure high 3 Saint-Lary (1700-2515 m)

As one of the largest ski areas in the Pyrenees, Saint-Lary has 100 kilometers of pistes on a total area of 700 hectares. The ski area, which is surrounded by the three-thousand meter peaks Pic Long (3194 m) and Néouvielle (3092 m), is spread over 3 areas between 1700 and 2515 meters high. The Valley station is to Saint-Lary Village to 830 meters altitude. From here, ski vacationers arrive within 8 minutes into the first branch of ski resort of Saint-Lary 1700, also called Pla d'Adet, either by cable or with the Pic Lumière cable car.

To the west from there, the second piste area of the ski station Saint-Lary 1900 connects. Finally, there is the third area of the ski area, the Saint-Lary 2400 area, which does not include its own ski station.

The total of 55 pistes of all three sub-areas are optimally connected by 31 lifts. Between Saint-Lary 1700 and 1900 commutes to a regular ski bus. And even by car, the two altitude stations are only 9 or 11 kilometers from the valley station Saint-Lary Village.

The perfect piste area for every requirement

Thanks to the fact that the various parts of Saint-Lary have a very different range of slopes, each of the three areas attracts certain target groups. So Saint-Lary 1700 / Pla d'Adret, the lowest area of the ski area, is the ideal winter sports destination for families and beginners. Here you will find a ski kindergarten right at the foot of the pistes for the next generation of young skiers from the age of 3, a spacious practice area with its own carpet lifts, 2 toboggan runs and the Kidpark in Saint-Lary - a freestyle course for little winter sports enthusiasts from 6 to 12 years old.

The third and highest area Saint-Lary 2400 is finally the mecca for snowboarders and freestylers. The snow park of Saint-Lary, which is located here, consists of several slopestyle lines for all levels from the mini-park to the professional zone. The normal pistes of the highest area range from a practice track to some black runs. A 3 kilometer long trail and winter hiking trails can also be found in the high altitudes of the Saint-Lary ski area.

If this ski resort trio is not enough, you can choose from other attractive winter sports in and around Saint-Lary. Deep snow fans, for example, in the off-piste areas at the Pic du Midi. And if you are looking for a unique speed experience, you should not miss a snow scooter tour after the run. A more leisurely is a dog sled ride through the fir forests of the natural Nordic area "la Couéou", which lies around 12 kilometers from Saint-Lary Soulan.
