Get ready for a truly iconic Pyrenean adventure! Your route starts in the beautiful medieval town of Saint-Jean-Pied-de-Port, a hub for pilgrims on the Camino de Santiago. Expect charming cobbled streets and a real sense of history.

The ride to Laruns is a big one—about 120 km of classic Pyrenean scenery, challenging climbs (with nearly 2,850 meters of elevation gain!) and long sweeping descents. You'll mostly be on quiet country roads with just a touch of gravel to keep things interesting. The route winds through lush valleys, remote villages, and over some spectacular mountain passes—don’t forget those scenic breaks!

After hours in the saddle, you’ll arrive in Laruns, a relaxed mountain village that’s perfect for a post-ride café stop. Laruns is a popular gateway to legendary Col d’Aubisque and the stunning Ossau Valley, making it a favorite with cyclists and hikers.

Pack some snacks, prep for some long climbs, and get ready to soak in some unforgettable Pyrenean views!
