DAY 1
Arrival | Saint-Jean-de-Luz, France
−
Arrive on the Atlantic coast and settle into the expedition. Build your bike, complete final equipment checks and meet the rest of the group before our welcome dinner and expedition briefing. There is time to explore the town, enjoy the beach or even dip a wheel in the Atlantic Ocean before we begin our crossing of the Pyrenees.

DAY 2
Atlantic Coast to the Basque Mountains
+
The journey begins at the Atlantic Ocean as we leave the coast behind and head into the rolling landscapes of the French Basque Country. Quiet roads, forested climbs and the first gravel sectors introduce the character of the expedition as we gradually move towards the high mountains of the Pyrenees.
DAY 3
Deep into the Pyrenees
+
Today the mountains begin to reveal themselves. Remote valleys, long climbs and spectacular mountain scenery define the day as we ride deeper into the heart of the range. Gravel tracks and quiet roads combine to deliver a route that showcases a side of the Pyrenees rarely experienced by traditional road tours.
DAY 4
Legendary Mountains & Hidden Valleys
+
A challenging stage through some of the most iconic cycling terrain in the Pyrenees. While famous climbs may feature where they add to the experience, the real reward lies beyond the main roads, where hidden valleys, historic mountain routes and breathtaking viewpoints reveal a completely different side of the mountains.
DAY 5
Recovery & Exploration Day
+
A well-earned recovery day in the heart of the Pyrenees. Relax by the pool, swim in nearby mountain lake, explore the local town or simply enjoy a long lunch and good company with fellow riders. Optional mobility sessions, stretching and sports massage treatments are available to help you recover and prepare for the second half of the crossing. For riders who simply cannot stay off the bike, an optional short spin is available, featuring a spectacular local climb with panoramic views across the surrounding valleys. However, we strongly recommend using this day to recover, rehydrate and refuel before the final stages of the expedition.
DAY 6
The Wild Central Pyrenees
+
The expedition continues through some of the most remote terrain of the journey. Long climbs, dramatic landscapes and carefully selected gravel sectors link together a series of valleys and mountain passes as we continue our progress eastwards across the range.
DAY 7
Andorra & The High Pyrenees
+
Cross into Andorra and experience some of the highest terrain of the expedition. Big mountain scenery, high-altitude roads and spectacular views dominate the day as we ride through one of cycling's most famous mountain nations before returning to the quieter roads beyond.
DAY 8
Catalan Pyrenees
+
Enter the eastern Pyrenees and discover a landscape of medieval villages, winding mountain roads and remote gravel sectors. The mountains begin to soften, but the adventure continues as we make our way towards the Mediterranean coast.
DAY 9
Mediterranean Finish
+
The final stage takes us from the mountains to the sea. Rolling terrain gradually replaces the high peaks as we complete our crossing of the Pyrenees and reach the Mediterranean coast. Celebrate the achievement with the traditional finish wheel dip and one final evening together.
DAY 10
Departure
+
Enjoy a relaxed breakfast before packing bikes and beginning your journey home. Transfers, onward travel and post-expedition stories await as the adventure comes to a close.
