Cycling enthusiasts will be familiar with the Col d'Aubisque (1 709m). It must be said that the corniche road of this mountain pass is not for the fainthearted: stifling heat and sheer climbs require superhuman efforts, but also draw cheers from the crowds who turn out to encourage the cyclists... But even the draw of the athletes won't distract you from the breathtaking panoramic view that the pass reveals, from the south hillock, over the Cirque de Gourette. A vast spectacle.
