The col features on many tour de France races

Lovely parkup for lunch at the top. Fantastic views, so quiet and air so clean.

Top of the pass marker 1709m (5706 feet)

Restaurant and memorial at the top (Niska was distracted as she had spotted another baguette)

Spotted some tiny people inspecting the spokes on some parked bikes

Col d'Aubisque, Pyrénées-Atlantiques

11. maj 2024, Frankrig ⋅ ☀️ 18 °C

We took a drive on the Col d'Aubisque mountain pass this morning in glorious sunshine. It's steep, winding, narrow and with the reward of the most incredible views. It's popular with cyclists, alot were on the pass today and it is regularly part of the Tour de France. We stopped at the top and had our lunch and a short hike. We found some snow, Niska went nuts!
We would have liked to continue our drive onwards on the Col du Soulor but vehicles over 3.5 tons are not permitted so we drove back down the Col d'Aubisque, much quicker and easier than driving up!Læs mere
