Popular Activities

Kayaking in a Range of Different Environments for Complete Beginners to Experts…

The area surrounding our Adventure Centre offers an awesome range of different places to jump into a kayak.  From gentle lakes with gorgeous mountain backdrops to raging sections of white water in the nearby rivers, there’s something for everyone who’s keen to get out onto the water.

Guided Rock Climbing and Abseiling

The Pyrenees is home to some spectacular climbs ranging from easy going, bolted sports routes for beginners in the nearby area of Arudy to more complex multi-pitch routes such as those found at the Pic du Midi d’Ossau and the Aiguilles d’Ansabere pictured below along with a few more of our favourites.

Guided Mountain Biking and Road Cycling

Here, in the heart of the Pyrenees, you’ll benefit from some of the most stunning cycling routes in Europe.  Whether you’re interested in mountain biking cross country, exhilarating downhill routes or fast-paced road cycling, you’ll find it all here! You’ll be just minutes from routes regularly featured on the annual Tour de France!  Challenge yourself on routes that have been tackled by the best in the world.

Guided Hikes and Treks in the Pyrenees

The 400km long chain of the Pyrenees contain’s some of Europe’s finest wild landscapes, hikes, treks and climbs.  These remain largely undiscovered by UK adventure seekers.  We think that’s crazy and once you get out here you’ll think it’s crazy too!

Ultimate Fitness Training

Each day will include a boot camp workout. We aim to make these sessions as action packed, and fun as possible, whilst at the same time, being extremely effective. Our target is to work every muscle in the body, burning around 600 calories per workout.

Client Reviews

What can I say, this was the most awesome weekend! The chateau and its team was fantastic. Kevin and John were happy to help wherever they could and made sure we were always keep occupied and fed. They offered an amazing service and I had a great weekend in their company. The rooms were comfortable and the hot water lasted through 9 girls. Really great accommodation, comfy beds that came in handy after the busy days.

All in all an excellent and totally exhausting weekend, totally worthwhile experience and 5 stars for all who planned and were involved in its creation. Tarryn on the River Crossing below!

Great weekend away. Was refreshing being somewhere so calm and peaceful. Loved how the chateau was traditional and modern at the same time. Generally a great space to be for this kind of weekend - plenty of open areas to socialise and also priceless having a pool / sun beds to chill out too.
