Pyrenees Road cycling climbs

32 Pyrenees Road Cycling climbs in 1 day range

Thanks to our perfect location and the pro equipped support van, we have 32 climbs available to you inside a 1 day ride radius from Skycircuitvelo basecamp when you book on our our Full Carbon service – 21 of which have featured in the Tour de France to date (2024).



Depending on your level and appetite, you’ll access these either as part of a bike-only circuit, or thanks to a short leg in the van to get you closer or back home.

Not forgetting the Pyrenees foothills…

As if 67 named ascents to the South, East and West wasn’t enough to be getting on with, we also have a surprisingly diverse sector to the North of Basecamp, where not one metre is ever fully flat, and from which you get breath-taking views of the full mountain range to the South. A popular choice for day 1 acclimatisation, recovery / zone 2 days, and photographers!

Route design – tailored to your group

Exclusively as part of our Full Carbon service, we’ll work with your group representative to build an itinerary tailored to your exact level and goals. Distance, climbing, gradient, descent intensity, views, food, landmarks…whatever your goals we’ll adapt your itinerary to deliver a highly memorable cycling holiday or training camp.
