The Pic du Midi is a sight not to be missed during a camping holiday in the Pyrenees. The mountain peak is 26 km away from the Airotel Pyrénées campsite. It takes about 40 minutes to drive to the Mongie cable car, which will take you up to the Observatory in just 10 minutes. An incredible experience to enjoy with your family or friends duing your mountain holiday in Luz-Saint-Sauveur.
