Story by fred from , France, submitted on 31/07/2011

Not as renowned as Galibier or Tourmalet it no less one of the major passes of the pyrénees. Local riders told me it could be the finish line for the next Tour de France..? Anyway a very nice pass with very steep sections around the middle. The summit is barren but I can''t tell about the view cause it was foggy and rainy when I climbed it. Going down was just agonizingly cold!

Story by Paul from Watford, United Kingdom, submitted on 23/10/2009

I rode this climb back in 2006 as part of a 3 week journey following the whole of the tour that year, me a car, my bike and a tent. The climb is very very tough through the mid section and the km markers just keep churning out 10% average signs which really do make you wonder when the suffering is gonna end. It probably didnt help that this was my first experience of the mountains and I was about 14st riding a 53/39 with 11/25. Only glad to say things have improved for me loads since then and at 11st I fly up climbs. If this is gonna be your first....you might want to go very easy. Great climb enjoy it and keep smiling, the views are amazing at the top
