Sightseeing & Activities

Pau

It offers many parks, shops, places to eat museums, and sights, including the Chateau de Pau, the fabulous Boulevard des Pyrenees and the (free) funicular railway connecting the lower and upper parts of the town.

One of the best golf courses in Pyrenees is right on our doorstep. Country Club Golf de Bigorre is 3 minutes drive in the car from Villa Tamerza and offers awe-inspiring views of the Pic du Midi and surrounding mountains.

A UNESCO world heritage site since 1997, the cirque is a high amphitheatre reaching 3248m at its highest point with a 400m waterfall which is the biggest in Europe. The nearby Cirque de Troumouse is also worth a visit as part of a full day trip.
