Rising to 2,115 metres in the heart of the French Pyrenees, the Col du Tourmalet is one of the most iconic climbs in cycling history.

The surrounding Hautes-Pyrénées offer a constellation of legendary cols — the Aubisque, Aspin, Peyresourde, and Soulor — making this region a bucket-list destination for road cyclists from around the world.
