Col de Peyresourde is a legendary Tour de France pass with more than fifty appearances. The route starts in picturesque Arreau. From here it works its way along rivers and charming villages. The first part is mostly easy climbing with some long semi-flat segments. You ride mostly into the valley, so there are no hairpins on this route. Most of the time you have beautiful valley views. The last segment of the route is harder and has a consistent gradient between 7 and 9 percent. When you reach Col de Peyresourdre you have climbed altogether 843 meters / 2766 feet.

Adding music to the ride:
Most cyclists would agree that the ride to Col du Tourmalet is awesome. But when it comes to music opinions are very mixed. This is why we do not add music to our rides. We simply do not want to spoil your ride with music you do not like. But it is quite simple to add it yourself. Open an extra browser tab. Find a site that offers music (Spotify, YouTube, etc…) and pick the music you like and enjoy the ride...
Col de Peyresourde (Luchon) - Cycling Inspiration & Education
As one of the oldest climbs in the Tour de France, first featuring in 1910, starting from the spa town of Bagnères-de-Luchon the Col de Peyresourde is a deceptively tough ascent. 14.5km in length and although only climbing at an average gradient of 6.5% up to 1,569 metres above sea level don’t be fooled by the numbers. The road ramps up straight out of Luchon, continually tickling the legs and edging you ever closer towards the red. It was on this very road that during the 2007 L’Etape du Tour the furnace-like summer sun did everything in its powers to melt the tarmac and make it feel like I was wading through quicksand. The Peyresourde’s a cunning little fox, regularly applying the pressure and threatening to turn you around and send you packing back to Luchon for an early shower. Take your time, keep the faith, and you will be rewarded for all your hard work. With 4 kilometres to go the road opens up to reveal the Midi-Pyrenees in all its finest, putting everything in perspective once more. The climb is one thing but the descent is something else altogether. Without doubt, an absolute masterpiece of a mountain.
Start: Bagnères-de-Luchon
Length: 14.5km
Summit: 1,569m
Elevation gain: 944m
Average gradient: 6.5%
Max gradient: 12%

Col d'Aspin (Arreau) - Cycling Inspiration & Education
Nestled between the infamous Col du Tourmalet and Col de Peyresourde in the beautiful Hautes-Pyrénées, the Col d’Aspin has a long and illustrious history with the Tour de France, first featuring in the race as part of the inaugural mountain stage (a mere 326km from from Luchon to Bayonne dubbed the Circle of Death) in 1910.
Starting from the charming village of Arreau on the river Neste, the eastern side of the Aspin is a 12 kilometre gift of vast mountain views and jagged peaks from the early kilometres all the way to the summit. It’s rare to be able to see the the summit of a climb within the first kilometre of starting it, but if you look closely that’s exactly what you can do on the Aspin, offering you gentle reassurance of your goal.
Use the first part of the climb to find your rhythm. The occasional near double digit gradient is only momentary and allows time to recover and enjoy on the easier sections. As you climb high above the Aure valley, the surrounding mountains become even more resplendent leaving you in awe at their mystique and magnificence. It may not be the highest or hardest climb in the Pyrénées but be sure to save some gas in the tank for the second section where the final 5 kilometres average 8%.
I’ve ridden the Aspin many times now and on each occasion it creates a certain feeling inside that brings peace and tranquility to the day. From wildlife roaming free to endless mountain views the Aspin has a richness in its character that no matter what’s going on in your world it simply makes you feel alive!
Start: Arreau
Length: 12km
Summit: 1,489m
Elevation gain: 799m
Average gradient: 6.5%
Max gradient: 10%
Ridden in October
I very much hope you enjoy our video on the Col d'Aspin. If the thought of these delicious mountain roads send shivers down your spine (in a good way) then why not join us on one of our cycling tours in the French Pyrénées and ride this very climb and many more of the most prestigious peaks in cycling history?

Col d'Aspin Descent to Arreau (in full) - Cycling Inspiration & Education
Nestled in the Hautes-Pyrenees, from the summit of the Col d’Aspin to Arreau in the east is a 12km slither of tarmac that’ll have you smiling all the way to the valley. Cascading mountain layers fill the horizon as you trace your way down the narrow road. Moderately technical with five 180° hairpins and a flurry of fast, flowing, bends the Aspin descent allows you to keep your speed, look past each corner and really enjoy the buzz of free-falling downhill on two wheels. For the more experienced it’s a blast and, just like the ascent, if you’re looking to build your confidence before taking on bigger things then it’s a great place to start as it allows you to concentrate on your every movement while at the same time enjoying the view!
Length: 12km
Summit: 1,489m
Valley: 690m
Elevation drop: 799m
Average gradient: 6.7%
Max gradient: 10%
We hope this video gives you an insight into what to expect from the descent of the Aspin to Arreau. The most important thing is to ride safe and, of course, enjoy!

About Port de Balès from Bagnères-de-Luchon:
Port de Balès is not only well-known due to the much talked about ’chaingate’ incident. It is also an incredibly beautiful ride. Not many cars go here, so it is a cyclist’s paradise. In fact some of the road to Port de Balès was built for cycling. Before the first Tour de France appearance, the last five kilometers was just an old unmaintained and impassable road. But the Tour de France organizers looked for something new to challenge the riders. So they had the last five kilometers paved. Since the new road was built this mountain pass has appeared in the Tour de France at least five times, and in the Vuelta at least once. In 2010 the pass became the scene of the ‘chaingate’ incident. Andy Schleck wore the yellow jersey on the climb up to Port de Balès, but had mechanical problems with the chain. Alberto Contador used that moment to ride away from Schleck and won the Tour de France with the exact amount of time that Schleck lost due to the chain problem (a few years later Schleck won the yellow jersey back, as Contador was found guilty of doping). The ride starts in the charming Bagnères-de-Luchon, one of the most visited towns by the Tour. From here the road follows ‘Route des Cols’ toward Col de Peyresourde. After four kilometers the route leaves the main road and the ride becomes a cyclist’s paradise. From here to the top it is all cycling bliss.
