갈리나그‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪6‬개의 산길

The Croix des 7 Frères is a small, inconspicuous summit and the start of a nice ride in the area.

1253 meters high, you can reach it via asphalt or gravel road

The Col de Pailhères isn't the most well-known of the Pyrenean passes, yet it's a concentration of everything cyclists are looking for. From Ax-les-Thermes, the slopes of this hors catégorie route constantly vary, requiring constant adjustments to finish at an altitude of over 2,000 meters in a superb setting.

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.

Fairly easy pass with average gradients of 5% on both sides.

Cross the forest of Bélesta, pass of the cross of the dead, Belcaire, pass of the 7 brothers, descent to Niort de Sault, climb of Espezel, then return via the maquis of Picaussel, the Babourade....an excellent route, very pleasant with a lot of shade.

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

Here you can barely reach the 2000m altitude. The area is wonderful
