This is a low difficulty linear trail that allows you to tour the Camin Reiau leaving from Vielha.

The trail starts at Betren, and heads to the sunny side of Vielha passing Palai de Geu. Once you reach Mijaran, carefully cross the N-230 and go down to the side of the river, passing the industrial facilities and continuing down the sidewalk to the trail that leads to the Vilac roundabout. Here you must cross the N-230 again and head along the road to Vilac for about 400 m. At the first bend, take the dirt track on the left to Betlan’s local road and go down it until you reach the N-230. From here, you’ll have to cycle about 300 m along the shoulder, with extreme caution of vehicles. Passing by Aubèrt, without going up to the village, leave the road and take the flat track to Bataller.

Camin Reiau begins about 200 m after crossing the Garonne. From here, you can enjoy this cool road full of history, which almost always has a smooth descent, until reaching Es Bordes.

You must be very cautious at intersections and stretches where you have to cycle on the road. You can leave your car in the village of Es Bordes or combine the return with public transport in the valley, which allows bicycles to be transported on the bus free of charge.

This is an easy trail that runs between Vielha and Betren beside the river Garonne and gives you the opportunity to observe this riverside environment with its characteristic fauna and flora.

Leave Palai de Geu, head towards Betren, then take the riverside promenade bordering the Garonne. Pass under the bridge and go on top, then cross it. The building you’ll see next to the river is the old Metren grindstone, which is currently undergoing restoration and adaptation as a museum piece. After the bridge, half-way up the steep incline, take the path on the left which will bring you back to Vielha along a trail. The trail finishes by going along the sunny side of the quite streets and returning to the starting point beside the river Garonne. Keep in mind that you must respect the property in areas with private meadows and close any cattle gates you find.

The touristic and gastronomic offering in Vielha is very broad so it is advisable to approach the tourist office, where you will get the right advice. Once in Betren, you can finish your ascent of the village and visit the church of Sant Estèue.

This route combines a gentle but prolonged ascent through the Tuca forest with a very interesting descent down the old Sarrahèra road, where you will have to use all your skills to avoid setting foot on the ground.

Leave Vielha and go to the village of Betren, then continue along the road until you reach the junction with the Tuca track, which you’ll take on the right. The ascent up this track is continuous, and you’ll pass the Costassa recreation area at km 2.5. Follow the main track until km 13, where you’ll take the track on the right that leads to the north of Vielha tunnel. The track peaks at 1525 m after which the descent begins. Take the trail on the left at km 8.3, where the most technical section of the trail begins. Be careful not to miss this junction, since the change in direction is very abrupt. You’ll then arrive at the track on the banks of the Nere, which will take you to the highest point of Vielha with its historic streets. Here you’ll find the dera Lan museum and factory, which may be visited, as well as a wide range of restaurants and shops throughout the town.
