  • Our local tip: if you're travelling with your family and have lots of luggage or ski bags, arrive at the airport pick-up point 15 minutes before departure to help make loading your equipment into the luggage compartment as smooth as possible.

The Skibus drops you off directly at Cauterets bus station, just 5 minutes from the Lys gondola. Its central location makes it easy to get to your accommodation or head straight to the slopes.

You can book your Skibus ticket directly online through the official N'PY website. The standard fare is €15 per journey (indicative price, subject to change), and your ski or snowboard equipment can be carried free of charge in the luggage compartment.

  • Money-saving tip: consider combining your transport booking with a No Souci card or accommodation booking to keep everything in one place and secure your seat during the February school holidays.
