Cirque de Troumouse, Glacial cirque in Gavarnie-Gèdre, France.

The Cirque de Troumouse extends across 4 kilometers in diameter and reaches an elevation of 2100 meters in the Pyrenees mountain range.

Geological formations in the area developed over fifty million years through intense glacial activities, creating this natural amphitheater in the mountains.

The cirque belongs to a collection of three remarkable natural formations in the Pyrenees that received UNESCO World Heritage status for their geological significance.

Visitors can reach the cirque by car during summer months, following the road to Plateau du Maillet, where hiking trails begin.

The site houses numerous grazing herds during summer months within its 11-kilometer circumference, making it the largest cirque in the Pyrenees.
