Fontfroide Pass

Highlight • Mountain Pass

A pretty cycling pass with a little Alpine character which is done in a loop from Lamalou or Saint Pons.
A few passages at 10%, with little traffic.

This wide turn reveals a superb panorama of the mountain. In the foreground, the D14 winds up the slope with beautifully drawn switchbacks. Further on, several characteristic reliefs of the Haut-Languedoc stand out, succeeding each other to the horizon. One of the most beautiful panoramas of the ascent!

View of Olargues Village

Highlight • Viewpoint

This charming medieval village is located between Mazamet and Bédarieux. Its emblematic Devil's Bridge, its small streets and its views of the Montagne Noire are worth a detour.

August 14, 2025,Gravel 63 km - Espinouse Olargues
- Shaded route recommended for the summer season
- Watch out for the small barrier at the end of the trail around 37.2 km (Ventouse)
- Slight route change recommended: stay on the D14 from Col du Poirier to Olargues.
Enjoy!
