Ride the legendary climbs of the central Pyrenees with us, all year round, from spring 2025
Welcome to Skycircuitvelo! We design and deliver bespoke road cycling holidays and training camps for groups, with full vehicle support.
Our (sky) circuits are built around our exclusive fixed base accomodation situated where TDF iconic Saint Girons meets historic Saint Lizier, in Ariège (French Pyrenees national park).
Ride from the gates, or rack your bikes on the custom van for a loop in another sector or a point-to-point day to/from the basecamp!
Our mission is to provide you with a high quality, fun, safe, seamless and highly memorable experience, whether your group consists of:
- Experienced riders who want to ride light, ride multiple sectors and push their limits, with all the advantages of pro-team style all-day vehicle support; or
- Advancing beginners looking to try their first ever mountain circuits in total safety, and having the broomwagon option to allow the group to continue if anyone pushes beyond their limits!
What’s included in the service?
Our goal is for your ride experience with us to be as hands-off and comprehensive as possible, from when you step out of the airport or station, until we return you there tired and happy.
In a nutshell, we’ll be offering:
Evening meals will be tailored to your preferences night by night – either choose from a range of tantalising local caterers who will bring your meals to the property, hit the local restaurants in Saint Girons, or even cook for yourselves! Evenings are yours to enjoy with all the home comforts, not pegged to a hotel.
Please note we have no plans to provide E <>W hotel-based tours. There are several established providers we can point you to if you’re looking to ‘Raid’ the Pyrenees!
Introducing the Skycircuitvelo basecamp
Your private piece of paradise overlooks 3000m2 of exclusive land and boasts up to 8 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, 4 toilets, a fully equipped kitchen, lounge/diner, games room, garage, secure bike storage and washing/drying facilities.
Recovery shake on the terrace?
Once you’ve left it all on the road, kick back on the south-facing terrace of our beautiful basecamp property…
We picked this location carefully – it gives direct access to the highest number and variety of ride route options from the front door, and yet you’ll also only be a short walk into bustling Saint Girons – an official TDF “Ville a velo” and home to one of the biggest weekly street markets in the Ariège ‘departement’ along with numerous restaurants, tearooms, bars and boutiques.
Our basecamp will remain open all year round (bar a little break here and there) – incredible opportunities for last minute off-season riding in the foothills in hot weather, even when the snowline is well below the cols!
Connect with us or check back in to find out more about this incredible sector of the Pyrenees. So far the Tour de France has passed through our home town of Saint Girons 63 times!
