If you want to see some spectacular mountain views in the French Pyrenees then buy a ticket on The Little Train of Artouste and take a train ride. through the mountains. This narrow gauge railroad has been operating since the 1920’s and was converted to a tourist train in 1932. I’m sure many a passenger has been thankful that the train wasn’t decommissioned after it was used to help build the Artouste Dam as the mountain views it provides are spectacular.
