BASQUE PURSUIT

Departure Date: September 24, 2021 / 8:00 AM

A spectacular landscape diversity from start to finish!

The Basque Pursuit starts and finishes in the heart of the Haute-Pyrenees. It will take you west to the Atlantic coast and back.

You will cycle many iconic climbs of the Tour de France such as Soulor, Aubisque, Marie-Blanque, La Pierre-St-Martin, Luz-Ardiden, Tourmalet (from the other side), and Col du Portet (the new Giant of the Pyrenees). You’ll discover many off-the-beaten-path climbs and routes all over France and Spain and dive deep into the colorful culture of the Basque Country.

Choose between 3 loops:

Discovery: 500 km

Adventure: 1100 km

Hardcore: 1300 km

The Discovery loop was designed especially for people who would like to venture into the sport of bikepacking. The Adventure and Hardcore loops are for experienced bikepackers and ultra-cyclists.

Do you enjoy mountains, stunning scenery, adventure, ultra-cycling and to explore your own limits? You will love the Basque Pursuit.
