Departing from the Tournaboup parking near Barèges, this first leg of a 3-day mini-trek allows you to immerse yourself in the heart of the Néouvielle reserve.

The path begins by climbing to reach the Lac des Coubous, then a multitude of smaller bodies of water. The setting then becomes more mineral as the path reaches Hourquette d'Aubert (2,498m), the highest point of the leg, which offers a superb panorama of the peak of Néouvielle and the lakes of Aubert and Aumar.

The route continues with a descent between these two lakes, until you reach the refuge of Orédon located on the shores of the lake of the same name.
