The GR10 gets you in the mood early on, with a wonderful climb up a tree-lined valley (planted to protect Cauterets from landslides, of which there is a fair bit of evidence), and then past a series of striking waterfalls. It's a real tourist spot, so every-so-often you pop out to crowds of day trippers.
