Path through the Pyrenees
Have you ever dreamed of riding the legendary cols of the Tour de France? Of following in the tire tracks of champions, where every bend tells a story, and every summit rewards with both breathtaking views and a deep sense of triumph?
Welcome to Path Through the Pyrenees — a one-of-a-kind cycling retreat that takes you on an unforgettable journey through the iconic mountain passes and hidden gems of the French Pyrenees. This is more than a cycling trip — it's an immersive experience into the spirit, struggle, and splendor of the sport.
What Awaits You
Our retreat is designed for passionate cyclists who crave challenge, connection, and authenticity. Over the course of 7 incredible days, you'll ride the legendary climbs — conquering storied ascents like Col du Tourmalet, Col d’Aspin, and Hautacam, all regular fixtures of the Tour de France. You'll train like a pro but eat like a local, enjoying guided rides supported by experienced coaches, followed by rustic French meals, local wine, and recovery with a view. You'll explore hidden roads, balancing the epic with the intimate as we discover quiet backroads, charming villages, and moments of reflection in nature. You'll stay in mountain comfort, in accommodations that are cyclist-friendly and soul-soothing — think hot showers, hearty breakfasts, and panoramic views. Most of all, you'll build community. This retreat is about more than elevation gain. It’s about shared miles, evening laughter, and stories exchanged over espresso and croissants.
Who It's For
Whether you're training for your next Gran Fondo, ticking off a cycling bucket-list item, or simply chasing the thrill of mountain riding, Path Through the Pyrenees welcomes intermediate to advanced riders who want to challenge themselves in a supportive, inspiring environment.
Why the Pyrenees?
While the Alps often steal the spotlight, the Pyrenees are where the heart of the Tour de France beats loudest. Wild, rugged, and rich with cycling history, this range offers a raw, emotional riding experience — with fewer crowds and more soul. Here, you're not just watching the legends — you're becoming part of the story.
