Le col de l'Aubisque en VAE
Climbing the Col d'Aubisque by bike is a must-do experience in the Ossau valley, a major mountain in the Pyrenees. The emergence of the VAE makes this adventure accessible to the greatest number, so why not take on one of the most emblematic passes of the Tour de France?
Climbing the Col d'Aubisque by bike is an unmissable experience in the Ossau valley. With its ribbon of asphalt winding its way out of the deep wooded valleys and onto the inviting high mountain pastures, the Aubisque is an emblematic Pyrenean pass. Electrically-assisted bikes offer the opportunity for any occasional sportsman, properly equipped and helmeted, to try the adventure of climbing one of the most dreaded passes in the Tour de France. With effort no longer an alienating factor, you'll have plenty of time to coax the wild beast by enjoying the shade of the hundred-year-old trees on the road to Eaux-Bonnes, to observe the basins and waterfalls of Le Valentin, to follow the gaze of flocks of sheep grazing in single file on the summit slopes. Effort management and discovery go hand in hand on the road to Gourette.
