20의 카르카니에르가지 명소 & 주요 장소

This spot is the same as the parking lot and the building of the Mijanès ski resort. I'll tell you about several interesting points about this place: - During the winter months, when the ski resort is open, there is a bar serving food. I'm mentioning this in case anyone is interested in climbing Port de Pailhères during these months. - This is where the road from Mijanès ends, and it is cleared when there is snow. During the winter months, there is a large barrier that prohibits the passage of cars and motorcycles, but it can be easily crossed by bike. If the barrier is down and you decide to climb by bike, keep in mind that you may encounter sections of the road with real mountains of snow. - From this point on, during the summer months, in addition to enjoying the road and the pass, you will constantly see herds of horses and cows. This is especially notable on sunny days in June and July.

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.?

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.

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

What more could you want, good road, decent, long climb

Rustic and sunny mountain village located on the eastern slope of the Col de Pailhères. There is everything you need for a cycling route, except a repair shop in case of emergency. The panoramic views of the town from its outskirts are beautiful.

Water refill at the bridge near the lake.
