Saint-Lary-Soulan

The culinary specialities of Saint-Lary-Soulan

The generous gastronomy of the Pyrenees leaves no gourmand unmoved! You'll have the chance to sample some of the best regional recipes when you visit Le Chalet restaurant, on the Route d'Autun. The restaurant's brigade prepares salmon filet en papillote, fondue montagnarde aux morilles and Raclette du Pays au fromage de vache to perfection. Other tasty culinary specialities on offer include French duck confit and a range of homemade burgers. Your taste buds will also be satisfied if you lunch or dine at La Grange. Refined dishes appear on the menu, so you have to make a difficult choice between dishes concocted with great delicacy by the establishment's chefs. We're thinking, for example, of the cod steak with chorizo, seasoned with a saffron cream of mussel sauce, and the dishes on the local menu. It includes exquisite tapas such as Duck Carpaccio with Hazelnut Oil. To accompany all the culinary specialities served at La Grange, choose Côtes de Gascogne or wines from the Madiran vineyards. Feeling peckish at the end of the afternoon, after a hike or a sporting activity? Treat yourself to an apple crumble!

And if fine days prevent the powder from settling in, no fewer than 290 snow guns ensure that skiers can indulge their passion throughout the resort! A popular destination for sports enthusiasts, the resort also offers the best conditions for couples and singles looking to recharge their batteries for a weekend or longer. Thermal cures are offered in the heart of a superb landscaped park. Finally, it would be a shame to visit the Occitanie region without seeing its most beautiful scenery at least once.

The circuit around Lac de l'Oule is ideal for families, while the one that takes you from the refuge de Bastan to the virage du Garet is more suited to experienced walkers.
