Pyrenees, the Col d'Aspin and the mighty Col du Tourmalet.
We are running a bit of a
cycling challenge /competition for our guests to see who can complete the ALLONS-Y

We will log all times

We are offering a free week's
holiday for the winner!

The clock starts ticking at the base of the

then the same amount in descent down into St Marie de Campan where you will turn
