Col du Tourmalet | Two Epic Climbs | Cycling Weekly

The Col du Tourmalet is called l’incontournable in France, the unavoidable. It’s the only way to get through this part of the High Pyrenees.
Both sides of the climb have been used a total of 87 times by the Tour de France (as of 2019), more than any other mountain pass.
It’s part of a natural line between Bagnères-de-Luchon and Pau that goes over the Col de Peyresourde, the Aspin, the Tourmalet and the Aubisque.
Big thanks to Le Closier of Le Barthe de Neste for their amazing support and accomodation: www.leclosier....
