Ready for a legendary Pyrenean ride? Set out from the spa town of Bagnères-de-Luchon, known for its Belle Époque charm and iconic “Vélo d’Or” cycling heritage. The route to Saint-Lary-Soulan covers about 45 km, but with over 2500 meters of climbing, it’s a true mountain adventure!

You’ll wind your way up high mountain roads and tracks, with nearly half the ride on smooth asphalt, but you’ll also tackle some gravel and ground—so be ready for mixed surfaces. The ascent is huge, but every pedal stroke brings stunning views: think sweeping valleys, waterfalls, and maybe a glimpse of wild marmots. Top out just under 2000 meters, then enjoy a thrilling descent towards Saint-Lary-Soulan, a lively mountain village famed for its ski slopes and thermal baths (perfect for a post-ride soak!).

This ride blends classic Tour de France energy with tranquil mountain vibes—ideal for riders who like a challenge and plenty of scenery. Don’t forget layers and snacks—the Pyrenees weather can keep you guessing!
