In the heart of the Pyrenees, in the Gourette ski area, the night becomes Nordic: an igloo will serve as your cocoon. L'Aventure Nordique offers you an unusual night combining the harshness of winter with the comfort of a warm welcome.
We welcome you in our hut, used by a shepherd in summer. You can leave your belongings there. At l'Aventure Nordique, you will spend an unusual night in this hut, heated by a wood-burning cooker, with its own bathroom and toilet.
You will start with a simple snowshoe walk that will take you to a viewpoint ideal for watching the sunset.
We return by headlamp and after a quick shower you slip into the Nordic bath. Water at 36°C in the open air. A real treat. The sauna is also waiting for you for a hot break. This is a private time, so you'll be on your own.
You'll have plenty of appetite for your meal! No dehydrated soups or sachets. Aperitif with a glass of sweet Jurançon from an independent winemaker, garbure royale, duck confit, Sarladaise potatoes, Ossau Valley ewe's milk cheese and fruit. A red wine, again from an independent winemaker, will accompany the meal, and you can finish with a coffee or herbal tea.
Time to slide into your igloo!
In the morning, over a hearty breakfast, you can tell us all about your Nordic adventure.
The igloos are already built, as it takes 3 to 4 hours to build one, depending on the type of snow.
Feel like skiing the next morning?
Take your equipment up to the village, we'll store it safely and in the morning you can buy your day ski pass at the normal rate at the hut. As soon as the slopes open, you can ski from the hut and head off for a day in the resort with the biggest vertical drop in the Pyrenees!
