도마니알 뒤 몽 발리에 예약‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪7‬개의 산길

정말 놀랍습니다. 매우 힘들지만 멋집니다. 그래블 자전거의 경우 타이어 공기압을 낮추기 위해 튜브리스를 강력히 권장합니다. 40mm 타이어로 오르내렸지만 45mm 타이어를 장착하는 것을 적극 권장합니다.

the t is good

Ascent of the Col de Pause in good condition, a good half is paved. You arrive at an altitude of 1527m. Beware of animals on the descent.

I did a lot of research before tackling port d'aula, katrien and i are riding vsf fahradmanufakturs tx 400 and tx 800. real heavy touring bikes. On top of that we had all our luggage good for another 35 kg at least. The climb from Couflens is absolutely beautiful and the major highlight of our cycling trip. DO IT! The descend into spain was true horror. After my research we decided to take the south east route along the slope of the mountain (this segment as felsenroder marked it) and aim at a shepards hut about 5km further and 400m of elevation lower. I'll create a highlight for that as well. I'm definitely into adventures and doing scetchy stuff. However i would NOT recommend taking this route with loaded touring bikes. Even with unloaded mtb's you should be a little bit sadist to enjoy this. It took us about 4 hours to finish this short section as we had to carry, not push, carry our bags and bikes over rocks and boulders. The pictures here are from the parts were the path was visible. This was not the case most of the time. Cows, goats and whatever other animals made it very hard to follow the trail as there were hundreds of 'fake' goat trails leading to nowhere. The last 2 km were marked with a white stripe of paint which made it a little bit easier to find the trail. Some regrets, tears and many liters of sweat later we made it to the shepards house and had an easy descend to the valley. That night we slept in Montgarri where the guardian told us we should have gone straight down on port d'aula. That trail is used much more often and is possible by e-bike. So i would definitely choose that trail over this one! The only positive i can say is that it's a nice HIKING trail with great views.

to pass Port d'Aula you have to push and carry your Bike here. There are some driveable, but also pathless and rocky sections, and sections with spreaded cow-paths along the very steep (100%, 45°) slope. It took me at least 1 hour.

This refuge is quite simple and has no water. That said, it's a nice place to take a break: the view is incredible!

The Col de Pouech offers breathtaking views of the surrounding mountains. You can also appreciate the Round and Long ponds in the distance.

Track in good condition for the last 2 km. ⚠ to the irrigation ditches crossing the track.
