Visitor Reviews of Cauterets
Eric Bastie from FRANCE writes:
Cauteret is a little village,and the skiing resort is small, but very "alpin".
This place is very snowy,and you can ski from November to May. The view all over the French Pyrenees from the top of Cauteret is incredible.
Good little restaurants with famous french south westerner food, nice prices; it's not Val d'Isere or Megève, but skiing is cheap and cool.
Near Cauteret, try to visit a very sportive ski resort named Gourette, 50 KM south of Pau and its "low costed airline companies airport". In Gourette,70 KM of skiing tracks, red, black, blue and green slopes from 1400 metres to 2400!
Very snowy place from November to end of April.
