The Col du Tourmalet<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

mythical Pyrenean mountain pass<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At an altitude of 2,115 meters, the Col du Tourmalet is one of the most famous passes in the Pyrenees and a legendary stage in the Tour de France. Less than an hour from Camping du Monl\u00f4o, a 4-star campsite in Bagn\u00e8res-de-Bigorre, it’s a must for mountain, cycling and scenic enthusiasts. Linking the valleys of Campan and Bar\u00e8ges, the Tourmalet offers spectacular scenery of high pastures, Pyrenean peaks and iconic winding roads. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A symbol of sporting challenge and mountain authenticity, the Col du Tourmalet attracts enthusiastic cyclists, bikers and travelers in search of wide-open spaces every year. The famous statue of Octave Lapize, erected at the summit, is a reminder of the heroic history of cycling in the Hautes-Pyr\u00e9n\u00e9es. From the Camping du Monl\u00f4o, your stay in the heart of the Pyrenean Piedmont is the ideal opportunity to discover this mythical site and live the Haute-Bigorre mountain experience to the full. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
