View of the Pic du Midi from the Col d'Aspin
Photo: Juliette Blavoux, Outdooractive Editors

Le Col d'Aspin est situé à 1 493 m d'altitude dans le département des Hautes-Pyrénées. Il permet de relier la vallée de Campan et la vallée d'Aure.

Depuis le village d'Arreau les pentes du Col d'Aspin sont très régulières, en majorité entre 6 et 8% (12km pour 6,5% de moyenne), ce qui en fait un col "abordable". On apprécie la vue dégagée, la montée en lacets, l'ouverture sur le Pic du Midi de Bigorre au sommet.
