Col du tour de france 2024, the start is demanding with numerous bends up to the pas du sant junction, after which it declines to become even more rolling on the final stretch. The setting of the Montagne Noire offers a shady route and beautiful scenery.

Col du tour de france 2024, le début et exigeant avec de nombreux virages jusqu'au croisement du pas du sant, ensuite cela décline pour devenir même roulant sur le final. Le cadre de la montagne noire offre une route ombragée, et de beaux paysages.

Nice climb, pretty trees and sometimes deer ... in summer you're in the shade. I've done it 3 times with my old trek mountain bike. The first time I stopped 3 times! it was 40°C ...... and this evening it was 22°C. It took me 58 minutes and I was really happy. Poussez jusqu'à Arfons c'est sympa comme village.

Jolie montée, jolis arbres et des biches parfois ... l'été vous êtes à l'ombre. Je l'ai fait 3 fois avec mon vieux vtt trek La premiere fois je me suis arrété 3 fois ! il faisait 40° ...... et là ce soir 22° j'ai mis 58mn j'étais super content. Poussez jusqu'à Arfons c'est sympa comme village.
