ベスキャットの峠・トップ6

A legendary category 1 pass. Easier from Bielle because the magnificent Benou plateau offers a gentler incline before the final climb.

Ascent of the Marie Blanque pass from Bielle quite easy and from Escot a wall🥵

Often used by the Tour de France, the Col de Marie-Blanque is less steep from Bielle than from its other side, thanks in particular to the passage through the beautiful Bénou plateau. The average gradient is 5.4%, with some sections reaching over 11%.

Short tour, climbed by a beautiful track. The 3 km of the trail are well worth the detour. Excellent winding trail, very narrow, some small hills, more technical passages and good rolling at the end. 2 large trees are lying down. And it's a beautiful forest. Return by track. To redo

Magnificent port, narrow road, and with a particular charm

The Marie-Blanque pass stands at 1,035 meters above sea level. It links the two valleys of Aspe and Ossau. Her name Marie Blanque would come from Béarnais to say "Marie Blanche". This is the nickname given to the Egyptian vulture, the totem bird of the Pyrenees. Maybe you will see it!
