Excursión ciclista de un día de Argelès-Gazost a Luz-Saint-Sauveur

Argelès-Gazost → Luz-Saint-Sauveur Cycling Route

Get ready for an epic ride through the heart of the Pyrenees! This 48 km adventure starts in the charming spa town of Argelès-Gazost, famous for its thermal baths and beautiful Belle Époque architecture—perfect for a pre-ride stroll and coffee.

The route packs a serious punch, climbing over 3,000 meters (yep, your legs will feel it!) and topping out at nearly 2,000 meters elevation. You’ll cruise along a patchwork of surfaces, from smooth asphalt to gravel and natural ground. Paths and quiet tracks make up most of the journey, letting you soak in mountain views away from traffic. Don’t be surprised by the occasional technical bit; about half the way has an “off the beaten path” feel.

Finish in Luz-Saint-Sauveur, a lively mountain town and gateway to legendary climbs like the Col du Tourmalet. Grab a pastry, unwind, and swap stories—this route’s a bucket-list challenge for any cycling adventurer!
