Hard road ride. Very good fitness required. Mostly well-paved surfaces and easy to ride. The starting point of the route is right next to a parking lot.

Labays Pass

Highlight • Mountain Pass

I would not recommend right now. They recently did a chip and seal so a LOT of loose gravel. I live in the area and even the road to Osse en Aspe.

Col de Soudet Ascent via Sainte-Engrâce

Highlight (Segment) • Mountain Pass

Not the easy way to climb to Pierre Saint Martin but the valley is very nice and awsome landscape.

Culminating at 1,540 meters above sea level, the Soudet pass is one of the first to be encountered from the Atlantic coast. The various climbs that lead to it are relatively long and maintain low average percentages despite a few passages around 10%.

Plateau du Bénou

Highlight • Viewpoint

Provides welcome respite between two steep sections up to Marie Blanque. If descending, enjoy the magnificent views but be alert to wandering livestock and people.

Ascent of the Col de Marie-Blanque from Bielle

Highlight (Segment) • Mountain Pass

Often used by the Tour de France, the Col de Marie-Blanque is less steep from Bielle than from its other side, thanks in particular to the passage through the beautiful Bénou plateau. The average gradient is 5.4%, with some sections reaching over 11%.

Marie-Blanque Pass

Highlight • Mountain Pass

The Col de Marie-Blanque is an emblematic passage of the Tour de France which peaks at 1,035 meters above sea level. Its ascent from Louvie-Juzon is 15 kilometers long for an average of 4.1% with passages at 8.5%. Marie-Blanque marks the border between the beautiful valleys of Ossau and Aspe. In the middle of the climb, the pretty Bénou plateau offers a portion of respite in a remarkable setting.
