THE PYRENEES & SAN SEBASTIAN
This is a unique experience that invites you to experience two cycling meccas in one unforgettable week’s cycling. We begin in the French Pyrenees where we will ride the legendary Pyrenees summits that have graced the Tour De France for more than a century. Then a journey into San Sebastián and the Basque country to tackle the legendary mountain passes of ‘La vuelta de Espana’ This two-in-one cycling adventure, should be on the bucket list of any serious cyclist. It’s hard to imagine a more perfect week’s cycling.
The Pyrenees mountains offer arguably some of the best climbing in the world, with miles of epic never ending switchbacks and with less traffic, it offers the rider a more peaceful experience than the Alps further north. This epic challenge takes us to the heart of the Pyrenees to ride legendary summits – including Col du Tourmalet, Col d’Aubisque, Col d’Aspin, Hautacam and Luz Ardiden – following the pedal strokes of the legends of Tour de France folklore like Eddy Merckx, Fausto Coppi, Jacques Anquetil, Bernard Hinault, Greg Lemond and many more.
The second half of this experience, we base ourselves in the beautiful coastal town of San Sebastián and the gateway into the Basque country where cycling is part of the DNA. From our luxury hotel next to the famous ‘La concha’ beach – we set out to tackle some of the incredible punchy summits that surround this gorgeous town – including Iguelado, Basakabi & Puerto de Andazarrete.
Aside from the stunning cycling routes – this is a gastronomic delight for any serious foodie. We invite you to savour some of the culinary delights in the Pyrenees bistros and our favourite bars and restaurants of San Sebastián. Without a doubt – this is one of our favourite trips and we cant wait to show you these epic climbs and some of the best food and wine in the world!
Allow us take care of everything – so you can just focus on riding, eating delicious food and sharing this unique experience with your fellow riders.
