I had such an unforgettable, stress-free adventure with Athara! Traveling with Athara to experience the Chemin de la Liberté in the Pyrenees was an absolute dream from start to finish. Every single detail was meticulously planned, allowing me to completely switch off and relax without having to worry about any logistics, or really anything at all. In fact, the hardest decision I had to make each day was whether to take a nap after our hike, lounge by the pool, or do both! The hikes were incredible - challenging, scenic, and thoughtfully curated to showcase the best landscapes the region has to offer while also showcasing the history and richness of where we were. A huge shoutout to our guides, Sarah and Anna, who were exceptionally knowledgeable about both the rich history of the area and modern local life. Seoka provided great support throughout the tour, like making our van magically appear (voila!) at the end of each hike and providing much needed additional water on a hot day. Thanks to their deep local connections, we were treated to top-notch reservations at fantastic restaurants all week long. On our "rest day" we got to experience the St. Girons local market, which allowed us to immerse ourselves in the culture further, with great food and purchase authentic souvenirs that I'll treasure for a lifetime! If you're looking for the perfect blend of active adventure, cultural depth, and effortless luxury, book with Athara. I can’t recommend them enough and am already thinking about where I can travel with this fantastic group of ladies next!

Great Adventure! Wonderful guides, fun group, delicious food. Thank you for a fabulous week.

I had a great time on this trip. The girls were really awesome. My accommodations were great. The picnic lunches were delicious and the dinner restaurant selections were perfect for after our days of hiking!!! Big thanks to Athara Adventures!! Looking forward to Norway😀

Sarah and Anna and Seoka Thanks so much for leading such a wonderful trip -- You clearly spent a lot of time planning so that everything went smoothly. Hikes took us to places of historical significance, which we really appreciated. They also included some spectacular views of the Pyrenees! We got a lot of fabulous exercise but were never pushed beyond our capabilities and were encouraged to go at our own pace. Out hotel was comfortable with the added bonus of a swimming pool. Only downside was the beer!! We enjoyed the cultural experience of our lunches and dinners - we certainly ate well from beginning to end and were never hungry! We were touched by the concern that you all took with the welfare of the group -- stopping at a pharmacy before we even got to our hotel to get supplies to care for a client's very swollen and sore elbow, taking a client to a doctor's office to care for the above mentioned elbow, adapting one hike to avoid injury due to extremely high temperatures. It was evident that you really cared for all of us. We loved every minute and look forward to another Athara Adventure!! Fondly, Larry and Helen Stowe

The retreat I attended was one of the most meaningful experiences I have had in recent years. I will take pieces of the experience with me forever. The setting was beautiful and calming and the schedule struck a perfect balance between guided sessions, personal time, and even some belly laughs. I am grateful for the adventure and feel forever connected to the people I spent this time with.
