アサスプ・アロスのおすすめツーリングルート

Quite a strenuous climb.

The Col de Marie-Blanque is a classic of the Tour de France. From Escot, the nine-kilometer climb begins gently before becoming steeper over the last four kilometers, with an average gradient of 7.6%.

Beautiful town in the Pyrenees region

I would not recommend right now. They recently did a chip and seal so a LOT of loose gravel. I live in the area and even the road to Osse en Aspe.

Twinned with the city of Jaca, Oloron-Sainte-Marie is made up of three neighborhoods, each with a well-defined character. That of Notre-Dame, where the Church of Notre-Dame is located and the confluence of two rivers, the Gave d'Ossau and the d'Aspe, the houses on the river and the bridges save them. In the public park we can see the monuments in tribute to those who were part of the resistance during the German invasion. The Cathedral neighborhood in the upper area of the city with its narrow streets and the Cathedral of Sta. María, and the Santa Cruz neighborhood where the church of the same name is located, built on a hill that presides over the city and offers spectacular views. spectacular, especially during sunset.

Bedous is a charming little village nestled in the Aspe valley. For nature lovers of all kinds, it is the starting point for numerous routes that lead to the riches of its beautiful valley. You will find shops there as well as an SNCF station.

A very irregular climb, with even a descending passage, which gives the opportunity to recover after a few slightly steeper passages. But not really any big difficulty on this pass.
