ABOUT THE AREA The French Pyrénées is the somewhat wilder and often lesser known cousin to the French Alps. Offering some of Europe's most challenging road cycling climbs, incredible gravel and technical single track for when you wish to venture away from the tarmac, as well as expansive winter ski resorts and many more hidden treasures. But it's not only about experiences on two wheels here, endless opportunities for hiking, trail running, exploring ancient mountain-side villages, rock climbing, paddle boarding on serene mountain lakes or even a spot of alpine lake fishing await you in the Pyrénées. Who knows, you may even be lucky enough to glimpse one of the 40 Brown Bears who call the Pyrénées mountain range home.
