Cycling the Great Pyrenean passes


Here's a chance for all cycling enthusiasts to measure themselves against the mighty passes of the Pyrenees - Aubisque, Marie-Blanque and Tourmalet included!

Two-time Tour de France winner Laurent Fignon has devised a week-long course for serious cyclists looking to improve their climbing technique while enjoying a break in the south of France. Based in Fignon's 3* hotel and cycle centre in the Pyrenean foothills the course includes meals, bike maintenance, accompanied rides (by professionals and, who knows, maybe the Master himself!) and a challenge and Gala evening to round off the week.

France a la carte has obtained knock-down prices to launch this programme: we can offer groups of 8/10 riders unbeatable tarifs that include transfer of riders and their bikes from Toulouse or Pau airport and a souvenir Fignon jersey.
