In this bend, the road crosses two streams, the Adour d'Arizes and the Adour du Tourmalet. The latter offers a beautiful waterfall at the side of the road and a moment of freshness during the hot summer days...

View of Pic du Midi

Highlight • Viewpoint

The end of the long straight 1 km from La Mongie offers a superb reward when the Pic de Midi finally appears. Nearby a view of the valley... double reward!

October 3, 2024,Radtour zum Col du Tourmalet

After rain comes sunshine. So we quickly got on our bikes and conquered the Col du Tourmalet. The 30km descent was lousy cold: 9 degrees🥶, felt like 3 degrees. But the views were magnificent.

September 26, 2021,⛰️ Col du Tourmalet, par La Mongie🦙

Relentless ascent even if the slope softens on some portions
The arrival on Mongie is quite steep (at the level of the avalanches above the road)
The village is very ugly, and particularly the exit with this hideous bar on the left on the way up.
Fortunately the end of the climb is superb in the middle of the mountain

July 19, 2025,Col du Tourmalet depuis Sainte-Marie de Campan

At the summit of the giant slalom, it's quite cold. I quickly descend to Sainte-Marie de Campan to see the riders at the start of the Col d'Aspin. The rain sets in.
The climb up the Col du Tourmalet is calmer and cooler.
