Climbing Heaven: Tourmalet, Aspin, Aubisque & much more!
Bicycling in the Pyrenees is not just another ride through the spectacular mountains of southern France. It’s a ride for people mad about experiencing rhythmic climbs through lush shady tree tunnels and isolated villages; mad about 40 kilometer winding descents so long you are compelled to check and recheck your brakes; mad about meeting local villagers who welcome your unexpected arrival with a local aperitif and rounds of beer; mad about bagging the cols where Eddy Merckx, Lance Armstrong and legions of other Tour de France greats have seen triumph and despair; mad about indulging in fresh regional cuisine and local wines only after you’ve earned it; and, mad about cycling one of the most stunning routes in all of France.
Click on one of our Pyrenees tours for more details. You’ll need nothing more than low gears and a big desire to know the Pyrenees and its friendly people at a more intimate pace.
