Excursion à vélo d’une journée de Saint-Lary-Soulan à Luz-Saint-Sauveur

This epic ride starts in Saint-Lary-Soulan, a charming Pyrenean village known for its lively atmosphere and as a gateway to high-mountain adventures. From here, you’ll tackle almost 72 km of incredibly varied terrain, with over 3,400 meters of climbing! The route winds along quiet mountain roads, with a good dose of tracks and some unpaved stretches—so expect a real mix under your wheels, from smooth asphalt to crunchy gravel.

You’ll climb past stunning alpine views with peaks all around, and at your highest point you’ll crest over 2,100 meters—talk about a true mountain experience! The ride finishes in Luz-Saint-Sauveur, a picturesque spa town nestled among the dramatic Pyrenean valleys and famous as a base for conquering legendary Tour de France cols like Tourmalet.

This challenging adventure is perfect for riders craving high passes, sublime mountain scenery, and the thrill of remote Pyrenean roads. Give yourself plenty of time, bring layers (the weather can change fast up high), and enjoy every pedal stroke between these two classic mountain towns!
