French Pyrenees

An immersive tour through the defining terrain of the Pyrenees, threading Tourmalet, Hautacam and Peyresourde into a coherent high-mountain sequence. The itinerary is built around exposed climbs, remote valleys and sustained efforts that reflect the raw character of the range.

Stages connect iconic ascents via quieter linking roads, prioritising depth and continuity over checklist riding. Carefully selected accommodation, all meals included, and a structure adjustable to rider expectations ensure a smooth experience. Full vehicle support, transfers, luggage handling and daily route guidance are provided.

Optional photo and video coverage and high-end bike rentals are available. Scheduling aligns with the prime Pyrenean riding window.

HOW IT WORKS?

1. Define the objective

You start by choosing the region you want to ride, the specific climbs or passes that matter to you, and your preferred dates or time window. This sets the physical scope of the tour: geography, difficulty, altitude, and seasonality. At this stage we also clarify rider numbers, experience level, and any non-negotiables (iconic climbs, rest days, hotel standards).

2. Shape the tour design

Based on your inputs, Elevation Adventures designs a coherent multi-day route. This includes stage distances, elevation profiles, valley transfers, climb sequencing, and recovery balance. The goal is not isolated “great climbs” but complete mountain days that make sense physiologically and logistically. Draft routes are reviewed and refined with you before anything is locked in.

3. Select the support model

You choose how much infrastructure you want around the ride. Options range from light guidance and logistics planning to full-service support with a dedicated van, daily on-road assistance, luggage transport, airport transfers, accommodation and meals. Bike rentals, mechanical support, and media coverage are added if you want them.

4. Logistics and execution

Once the structure is approved, Elevation Adventures handles the operational work: booking hotels, planning transfers, coordinating support vehicles, preparing daily routes and contingencies, and managing timing. You get a clear, day-by-day plan with minimal admin on your side.

5. Ride the tour

You show up and ride. Routes, support, accommodation, and daily flow are already taken care of. Adjustments can be made on the road if conditions or preferences change. The focus stays on riding, not problem-solving.
