피레네 - 몽 페르두‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪16‬개의 협곡

Beautiful medieval bridge that crosses the Rio Bello, it's a shame that the modern footbridge partially hides its structure

Impressed to Admire the Show🌈of the Sky Line of the Cirque de Gavarnie 🏞️Its Majesty leaves us Amazed by this Wonder🌈

Stunning view of the circus

Sublime and cool

It is one of the great climbs in the Pyrenees. In my opinion it is in the Top 10 of the Pyrenees, without the slightest doubt. I like long, high, hard climbs with magnificent views... and the Cirque de Troumouse fulfills this 100%. The road is narrow and bumpy, with an irregular but smooth surface. It is the typical mountain road that suffers the passage of winters and summers. The two times I've been there, I've barely encountered any traffic. The second time was a Saturday. Traffic usually goes to the town of Gavarnie, with the Cirque de Troumouse being very untouristy. Much better for those of us who want tranquility and spectacular landscapes!!!

The bridge was raised more than 40 meters above the Bellós River. It is believed that it was built in the 16th century, coinciding with the strengthening of the cult of the saint, although the tradition dates back to the 8th century. It is possible that the bridge was built thanks to the contribution and commitment of the group of rural communities that came to the sanctuary every year.

Despite high attendance, it remains a must.

The Troumouse cirque is, with Gavarnie and Estaubé, one of the three great cirques of the Pyrenees. It is the largest and wildest, peaking at more than 2100m with a cirque diameter of 4km. There are no trees or bushes on the horizon, due to the climate and the wind. It is part of the Mont Perdu massif which is located on the other side of the border. This point marks the end of the asphalt road. It's definitely worth getting here because the road is magnificent and gives you the opportunity to ride peacefully in the heart of a grandiose landscape. The last bends from the Auberge du Maillet are on a narrow road inaccessible to cars and bikes therefore share this end of the climb with a small tourist train pulled by a tractor. Personally, I preferred this passage to the road to the Gavarnie cirque.
