New for 2018, due to popular demand, Ardiden Velos now offers 3, 5 or 7 day self-guided road bike tours. The tours are based on the demands of keen amateur cyclists and include many iconic Tour de France climbs and a number of popular, lesser known, but equally challenging local climbs and scenic routes. See Self-Guided Tours for more information.
At the beginning of the season during April and May, the weather can be changeable. It may be cold at the higher altitudes, so be prepared ... The lower cols and the climbs to Hautacam, Cauterets and Luz Ardiden are rideable, but The Tourmalet and Aubisque are not normally open before the end of May. July and August are the busiest months - It is usually hot and dry but there are inevitably a few rainy days with mist at the top of the mountains. September is usually the best month for road biking. The weather is dependable and it's still warm but a little cooler than during the summer months, so perfect for climbing. The season lasts through to about the middle of October. For current weather conditions, see meteoblue.com
