Hourquette - Aspin forest junction

Highlight (Segment) • Other

Superb rolling forest track, connecting the Col d'Aspin and the climb (or descent) of the Hourquette. Lots of streams, which makes the track wet in quite a few places, but doesn't take away from the pleasure.

Col de Beyrède

Highlight • Mountain Pass

The Col de Beyrède peaks at 1,417 meters above sea level. Much less frequented than the Col d'Aspin, it offers incredible tranquility throughout the climb. I suggest you climb from the side that overlooks the Col d'Aspin. Indeed the road is sometimes in poor condition, which would make the descent more dangerous.
