Overview

Join an official Everesting tour as we take on 11,700 m - 16,000 m of climbing over 6 days in the high mountains of the French Pyrenees. Test yourself on some of the toughest climbs HC climbs in cycling. Headline climbs include the Tourmalet, the Peyresourde, the Aspin, the Hautacam, Soulour, Aubisque and more. Each day you can choose to ‘Make it Epic’ and add an extra climb, bringing the total elevation of the trip to an eye-watering, leg sapping total of over 16,000 m (that’s twice up Everest). In addition to accumulating more than the height of Everest during the camp, you’ll pick up invaluable climbing and descending skills from our experienced guides.
