A challenging road cycling holiday through the stunning Pyrenees. Spanning the distance between the Bay of Biscay on the Atlantic Coast and the Mediterranean Sea, Europe’s most impressive mountain range forms a natural border between France and Spain.

The home of both Basques and Catalans; throughout history the region has seen its share of conflict. Thankfully today however the struggle for supremacy in the mountains is mainly fought out on two wheels and whether it be professional riders battling for points or Tour De France stage wins or amateur riders battling against the mountains themselves, the challenges presented by the Pyrenees are just as dramatic and just as exciting.

If you’ve always wondered what it feels like to climb the likes of the Tourmalet, Aubisque, Aspin and Peyresourde then this is your chance. These mountains are legendary in the cycling world.

We begin the riding on the northern fringes of the mountain range and our challenge is to traverse our way right across to the shores of the Med. in the south, from where we will fly home when our tour finishes.

Designed with climbers in mind this tour will appeal to the more serious amateur rider who enjoys pushing themselves just that little bit further.
