Discover the Ultimate Cycling Adventure in the French Pyrenees
At Hello Pyrenees, we host cycling holidays that combine challenging routes, breathtaking scenery, comfortable accommodation, and authentic local experiences.
Whether you're looking to conquer iconic mountain passes, enjoy a leisurely cycling tour through charming villages, or train on some of the most famous roads in professional cycling, the French Pyrenees deliver an experience unlike anywhere else.
The Pyrenees are renowned throughout the cycling world for their dramatic landscapes and legendary climbs. Cyclists travel from across the globe to ride roads made famous by the Tour de France, including:
Col du Tourmalet
Col d'Aspin
Col de Peyresourde
Col d'Aubisque
Hautacam
Luz Ardiden
But the French Pyrenees offer far more than iconic mountain passes. Quiet roads, stunning lakes, rolling foothills, traditional market towns, and incredible wildlife make every ride a memorable adventure.
With less traffic than many Alpine destinations, the Pyrenees provide a more relaxed and authentic cycling experience while still delivering world-class climbs and breathtaking scenery.

Guided and Self-Guided Cycling Holidays
Choose from fully guided experiences with local expertise and support, or self-guided holidays that allow you to explore at your own pace using carefully planned routes and detailed navigation.
Leisure Cycling Tours
Enjoy gentler routes through beautiful valleys, historic villages, and stunning countryside. These holidays focus on scenery, culture, and enjoyment rather than steep climbs and long distances.
Mountain Biking
The Pyrenees offer exceptional mountain biking terrain, with routes ranging from flowing forest trails to technical alpine descents. Riders can explore ancient paths connecting mountain villages, climb to breathtaking viewpoints, and experience thrilling downhill sections surrounded by stunning scenery.
“I spent 8 days here as a base to go cycling in the legendary Pyrenees mountains.
The accommodation is first class. James has beautifully renovated the barns to create gîtes that are finished in a classic and tasteful rustic style. The rooms are clean and comfortable, and the kitchen is fully equipped if you want to make your own meals. However, if you don't, Amy will cook you the most tasty food imaginable!”
