Butterflies of the Hautes Pyrenees with Kate Humble

It's undoubtedly one of the most dramatic and beautiful mountain environments in Europe with breathtaking scenery and an enviable array of flora and fauna. This tour aims to find the most notable butterflies that call this environment home, with a particular emphasis on five of the Erebia mountain ringlets, hosted by wildlife champion Kate Humble, and Mariposa founders David Moore and Jon Dunn
