Conspicuous features of Pyrenean scenery are: the absence of great lakes, such as those that fill the lateral valleys of the Alps the rarity and relative high elevation of usable passes the large number of the mountain torrents locally called gaves, which often form lofty waterfalls, surpassed in Europe only by those of Scandinavia the frequency with which the upper end of a valley assumes the form of a semicircle of precipitous cliffs, called a cirque.

Caracteristicile definitorii ale peisajelor Pirineilor sunt: absența lacurilor mari, precum acelea din vârfurile laterale ale Alpilor pasuri montane la altitudini ridicate, și relativ rare numeroase torente montane numite gaves, care formează adesea cascade, depășite în Europa doar de cele scandinave frecvența cu care capătul superior al unei văi ia forma unui semicerc de culmi abrupte, numit local un cirque.
