Aspin Aure

An authentic village, nestled in the heart of the Col d'Aspin, a little off the main road. It is nevertheless home to some very beautiful houses, farms and barns. The church of Saint-Martin dates from the 19th century. In neo-Gothic style, it replaced the old church in 1880 because it had become too small and dilapidated.

Fans of the Tour de France are all familiar with the famous Col d'Aspin climb, which has been ridden 74 times since the race began! Famous since the beginning of time in the cycling world, this pass is appreciated by amateurs and professionals alike; it is found in practically every Pyrenean cycling race! On one side, there is Arreau in the Aure valley and on the other, Payolle in the commune of Campan, two dynamic and widely visited sites.
