Pic de Cabaliros

Pic de Cabaliros, Mountain summit in Hautes-Pyrénées, France

Pic du Cabaliros is a 2332-metre summit in the commune of Arcizans-Avant, Hautes-Pyrénées, 8.5 km south of Argelès-Gazost and 4.5 km north of Cauterets. Its broad, rounded top is bare grey-brown rock and scree, with grass and low vegetation on the flanks and patches of snow lingering near the crest. A faint track climbs the grassy slope below the summit.

The mountain served as a regular destination for herders and mountain dwellers who used the high meadows for their livestock. It gained recognition in the 19th century as an achievable peak among climbers exploring the region.

The name Cabaliros likely derives from "cabalerie", the old term for the horse herds grazed on the pastures around the peak. In the 19th century the name was sometimes applied to the whole mountain above Cauterets. A small inn stood 1 km south-west of the summit to receive tourists in the early 20th century; only its ruins remain.

Two main routes lead to the summit: one from the village of Sireix via the Tucoua plateau, the Tucoua peaks, a shepherd's hut below Arrayet and the Soum du Lath-Dessus; the other from near Cauterets through Catarrabes, the Bois d'Aumède and the Col de Contente. Both are covered by the IGN 1647 OT TOP 25 Vignemale map.

The orientation table at the summit was first set up in 1910 by the Touring club de France, based on surveys by Georges Ledormeur, on the site of an earlier geodetic signal. The table visible today dates from 1993. From the top, in clear weather, the peaks of Pic du Midi d'Ossau, Palas, Balaitous, Moun Né, Vignemale, Ardiden, Pic Long and Néouvielle can be picked out within a 30 km radius.
