Huts (Refuges, Refuge)
Most of them are staffed, it costs around 12 euro for a bunk and about the same for a copious set meal. A dining area is generally available for self sufficient trekkers. In the less popular areas, cabanes are free of charge, they generally consist in a sleeping platform and an open fire.
Bivouac
The Pyrénées, with all its lakes is a very pleasant place to bivouac or just sleep out.
