Mont Perdu ('lost mountain') is on the border between France and Spain in the Midi-Pyrenees department.

Mont Perdu is in an inaccessible region deep in the Hautes-Pyrenees department. It is the third highest mountain (altitude 3,352 metres) in the Pyrenees, with the summit of Mont Perdu actually being found in Spain (where it is known as Monte Perdido).

Approaching from France the mountain is hidden behind the Cirque de Gavarnie and the Cirque d'Estaube, themselves awesome spectacles, and the other mountains of the region. Many of these offer magnificent views of Mont Perdu.

Much of the protected region falls within Spain, and the French part falls in the Pyrenees National Park. The mountain is approached by two of Europe's deepest canyons on the Spanish side.

It is the landscape and countryside and also the way of life that are being protected, both for the traditional dwellings and agriculture, and for the very wide range of flora and fauna to be found in the region. The landscape is a stunning mix of bleak mountains, pastoral countryside, lakes and forests.

The Pyrenees National Park is not easy to explore properly from the comfort of your car. Hiking through the mountains is a much preferable way to appreciate the scenery and peace of the region. The Pyrénées National Park offer guides and advice during the summer to help you make the most of a visit to the region.

The region around Mont Perdu is a listed World Heritage sites.
