Hard road ride. Very good fitness required. Mostly well-paved surfaces and easy to ride. The starting point of the route is accessible with public transport.

Along the Gave de Larrau

Highlight (Segment) • Other

Very pretty section along the Gave de Larrau. The road meanders along the curves of the river flowing in the bottom of the valley.

Erroymendi Pass

Highlight • Other

It is an intermediate col that is overcome on the northern slope of the port of Larrau. The views from this point are beautiful.
When this point is reached, there are still 4 km left until reaching the top of the Larrau pass, of which 2 km are rest.
The most significant thing about the Col d'Erroymendi is the long straight line of almost 1 km at 13% until it reaches its summit. It is really hard and I have always suffered a lot there.

Larrau Pass

Highlight • Mountain Pass

The port of Larrau is clearly worth the detour. The slope is sustained from the Auberge de Logibar. It eases when crossing Larrau and picks up again until the first Erroimendy pass (the wind is very often from the front and the last ramp is quite terrible). There are then 3.5 quiet kilometers in a sublime landscape and three switchbacks in the last kilometer at more than 10%.

Ascent of the Port de Larrau

Highlight (Segment) • Mountain Pass

The climb to the Port de Larrau is more arduous on the French side. It covers fifteen kilometers at an average gradient of 8%. The most difficult section is located in the middle of the route. Also be careful of the very steep final kilometer.
