The port of Larrau is clearly worth the detour. The slope is sustained from the Auberge de Logibar. It eases when crossing Larrau and picks up again until the first Erroimendy pass (the wind is very often from the front and the last ramp is quite terrible). There are then 3.5 quiet kilometers in a sublime landscape and three switchbacks in the last kilometer at more than 10%.

As harmless as the numbers may seem, from the north the Port de Larrau is undoubtedly one of the toughest French climbs, thanks to the tough pass Col d'Erroimendy - 9.6% average climb over 10 km.
Once you have reached this pre-pass, the onward journey to Port de Larrau is just a breeze.

Having been over this Col in 2003 during the Etape du Tour that was 205 kms in length, i can tell you on a warm day this is a formidable climb that can quickly sap your strength, the descent is fast and rewarding, just remember to keep your eyes on the road !
