Pic de Néouvielle, Granite summit in Hautes-Pyrénées, France

The Pic de Néouvielle reaches 3091 meters in elevation and features four cirques separated by granite ridges, overlooking the deep valley of Lake Cap-de-Long.

The first documented ascent of Pic de Néouvielle was completed on July 10, 1847, by Vincent de Chausenque accompanied by Barèges guide Bastien Teinturier.

The name Néouvielle originates from the Occitan words 'nèu vielha', meaning 'old snow', while residents of the Aure Valley refer to it as Aubert Mountain.

The climb from Lake Aubert involves an elevation gain of 1000 meters over 8.3 kilometers, requiring approximately six hours and thirty minutes with crampons during season.

The peak provides a complete view of Lakes Cap de Long, Aubert, and Aumar, with a final passage through a rocky chimney requiring hand climbing.
