Cycle the Pyrénées

"A vast expanse made for huge appetites, enthusiastic sunshine and clement skies, a certain taste for festivities, and Toulouse as its capital"

The Midi-Pyrénées, in the heart of south-western France, has become a favourite destination for people wanting to relax, laugh, learn and wonder alongside people who enjoy acting as hosts and revealing the secret facts of their part of the world.

The Midi- Pyrénées is bursting with ideas for stays, enabling you to savour the charm of a small village or a fortified village, the warm friendship of sharing dinner with your hosts, the haunting memory of a castle or a Romanesque church, the rare skill of a producer, the colours of a market bursting with beautiful food, the texture of old red brick or pale sandstone, or again the beauty of wide open spaces just waiting to offer all kinds of walks and all kinds of adventures.

There are also some fantastic cycling routes through the Pyrénées, most being suitable for amateur cyclists and featuring few or no hills. Visit the Midi-Pyrénées tourist board website more useful information and cycle routes in the area.
