Pyrenean roads from Lourdes
Col du Tourmalet, 50 km, approx. 1 hr. The highest road pass in the French Pyrenees, with flowing series of bends and views over the peaks.
Col d’Aubisque, 45 km, approx. 1 hr. Technical hairpins and open views of the ridges between Argelès-Gazost and Laruns. Combine it with the Col du Soulor.
Cirque de Gavarnie, 50 km, approx. 1 hr 10. A road through spectacular gorges to one of the most beautiful natural sites in Europe.
Bigorre and Béarn roads, 30 to 80 km. Flowing, quiet routes away from the main roads. See our loops in detail on the motorcycle routes in the Pyrenees page and our motorcycle weekend programme.
The bikers’ pilgrimage, every June
On the third weekend of June, thousands of bikers gather in Lourdes: a group ride in the Pyrenees on Saturday, then Mass, a parade and the blessing of the motorcycles on Sunday. The hotel is about a 6-minute walk from the Sanctuary in a quiet area: close enough to do everything on foot, far enough to sleep well. For that weekend, book several weeks ahead.
