    Beautiful port but you have to take into account that there is about 12km of gravel

      Beautiful asphalt road whether on the Ferrere side or the Luchon side. The climb on the Ferrere side is much more pleasant. I recommend this pass.

        Having become suitable for vehicles on both sides for a few years, the Tour de France has already made it famous on several occasions. The climb to the port of Balès is now more used by cyclists but remains an inescapable ascent to the border of the Haute Pyrénées and Haute Garonne. And when the weather is nice, the view is sublime. Departure possible for beautiful hikes (Mont born) but also for beautiful mountain bike trails or even a descent to Luchon!
