There are several fountains and public pools with pure thermal water to warm your feet after the descent.

It's an ideal spot for a picnic. It's also an ideal place for groups of cyclists supported by vans, as there's plenty of space here to relax and not disturb anyone. The lake is at an elevated point, so accessing it from La Llagonne or Les Angles requires a steep climb, always at a lower gradient.

Beautiful! good alternative to the main Pailheres

Nice relax and shower stop in the swimming pool by Parc de'Espagne. Also a hose to clean the bikes in park near the gondola lift entry.

Stunning

From Axat, it's a long climb, 18km. It's quite beautiful down in the gorges, then a few kilometers of fairly monotonous woods. Arriving on the plateau, it clears up but it's rural. The impressive view is worth it when you reach the pass. Going down there must be a blast, the tarmac is good, it's quite wide and there's little traffic. I went down via Escouloubre: the tarmac is bad, gravel, but the forest is enchanting! Why not go the other way, then, up via Escouloubre and down via Bousquet / Roquefort etc.?

After passing the village of Niort-de-Sault, this is where the climb to the Col de Pradel formally begins, as indicated by a nice sign. Despite this, the road is already climbing very slightly at 2% from the moment you take the D 107 towards the pass. I recommend taking a photo at this place to remember the start of one of the most spectacular climbs I have done in the Eastern Pyrenees.

My experience on this stretch was downhill, once I reached the top of the Col des Aychides. It is a narrow road with uneven asphalt, where you have to be careful, although I have to admit that I found it beautiful and very fun. Although there is a considerable precipice on the left, I was not scared at any time. You go through a couple of small tunnels dug into the mountain, which gives it a lot of charm. It is a beautiful stretch.

Very good route to do in spring or summer

Water is valuable - especially in the drinking bottle

It is a simply spectacular port that unites the regions of Conflent and Capcir. It is one of the most beautiful ports in the easternmost Pyrenees. It is very close to the Col de la Llosa, and you can take a circular route that is known as the "Route des Cols". It is also indicated on nearby road signs. The hardest slope is the one that begins in Olette (Conflent) and goes up through Aiguatèbia. There are almost 22 km of ascent and 1,089 meters of elevation gain. It has 3 very different zones: (1) the first is a constant 5 km at 7%; (2) the second is 10 km at 4% and with some very pleasant rest areas, with beautiful views; (3) The final part is 6 km on average at 7%, since it passes the town of Railleu, although the hard part is the last 3 km, with several ramps that exceed 10%. The road is narrow and has uneven asphalt, with hardly any cars and motorcycles. For me, the final part of this port is truly spectacular and should not be missed. The west slope begins in the town of Matamala (Capcir) and is 3 km with an average of close to 8%. It is a long irregular stretch along a narrow and very quiet road, with panoramic views of the valley when the thick black pine forest gives some opportunity.

A little disappointing: the pass is in the middle of the forest and offers no view. The climb from (and to!) Railleu is nevertheless superb. A nice picnic area to have a bite to eat.

One of the best experiences on my entire tour. I have this picture with the view of the mountains as my screen background. The roads are still closed, the snow is piled up meters high on the sides and at the same time there is not a single car on the road. Simply fantastic

This is the beginning of the Port de Pailhères on its eastern side, in Usson-les-Bains. It is worth stopping because there is a sign that commemorates the first climb of the Tour de France in 2003 and indicates the main information about the port.

Whether you arrive by going up from Ax-les-Termes or descending from Port de Pailhères, at this junction you take the road that reaches Col de Pradel. There is a very nice fountain where you can refill the bottles with fresh, drinking water.
