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

Ready for a true Pyrenean adventure? This route takes you from the charming village of Campan, nestled at the foot of the mountains and famous for its quirky “Mounaques” (life-sized dolls that adorn the town in summer), to the lively alpine hub of Saint-Lary-Soulan—a favorite for both cyclists and skiers.

The journey is just under 50 km, but don’t be fooled by the distance: you’ll be climbing over 2,000 meters, with some exhilarating descents as well. Expect a real mix under your wheels—most riding is on quiet, scenic roads, but you’ll hit stretches of gravel and unpaved tracks, adding a bit of adventure to the ride.

You’ll likely pass through some iconic cols and breath-taking landscapes, with maximum elevation hitting around 1,600 meters. At the end, Saint-Lary-Soulan welcomes you with its lively village vibe and plenty of places to grab a well-earned drink. A classic mountain ride—tough, unforgettable, and perfect for anyone who loves epic climbs and gorgeous views!
