Description:
Gourette ski resort is located about 50 kilometres south of Pau in the Aquitaine region of South West France, just over the border with the Midi-Pyrenees.
The resort faces south at an altitude of 1400 metres with stunning views over Pene Medaa and the Pic de Ger. There are twenty six pistes in all with a maximum drop of 1000 m and a large beginner's area called Le Bizou that covers seven hectares.
