The Ski Resort
On a sunny plateau, 140 km (87 mi) southwards from Toulouse lies the ski area Luchon Superbagnères. From here one can enjoy a marvellous panorama view on the valley of Luchon as well as on both the Maladeta massif and the Aneto, the highest mountain of the Pyrenees.
All guests will be taken by a gondola into the skiing area of Luchon within 8 minutes. You´ll find three different areas to guarantee diversified skiing vacations. Téchous, one of the three areas, is especially suitable for children and beginners with all its gentle slopes. The Secteur du Lac offers quiet forest runways, whereas the Secteur du Céciré is characterised by its long ski-runs.
