Pic du Jer Funicular

An experience high above the mountains in the Hautes-Pyrénées


One of France's first funicular railways


Work on the Pic de Jer funicular began in 1898 and was completed more than a year later.

Construction was completed quickly, thanks to an aerial carrier that transferred stones from the Petit Pic du Jer quarry. Put into operation in May 1900, it was one of the first ski lifts to be built in France. For this reason, it is an important symbol of the region.

This original means of transport enables pilgrims on their way to Lourdes to ascend to the picturesque site of the Pic de Jer. Over the years, it has become a popular tourist attraction, attracting visitors in search of exceptional views and mountain lovers. The Pic de Jer funicular also offers privileged access to hiking trails and a panoramic restaurant.


Adventures with family and friends


Thanks to its perfect location in the heart of the Pyrenees, the Pic de Jer funicular offers a wide range of activities all year round. Solo or in a group, you can :
  • Enjoy the 360-degree panorama
  • Descend the trails on foot or mountain bike
  • Explore the caves
  • Discover the local flora and fauna
  • Have fun with treasure hunts
All the ingredients for a memorable vacation!
