IGN cards
Description
Trail accessible in winter.
A pleasant short walk through woodland that takes you up to old summer barns with a unique view of Luchon. At the right time of year, the trail is fragrant with wild garlic, which can be eaten (in moderation) in cakes, omelettes or pesto!
Start from the Pont des Mousquère bridge at the end of Avenue Jean Jaurès. You will reach the fork for the Soupère barns. Continue straight ahead and then, at Pré de Houga, the winding track will take you back to the starting point.
