Ride Col du Tourmalet on your smart trainer

What the climb is like

The west side climbs steadily through Barèges and gets harder in the final kilometres, where the gradient stays near 9 to 10 percent up to the pass.

How to ride it in Pedalsim

Col du Tourmalet is one of Pedalsim's built-in famous routes: open it from the button below, or under Famous routes in the app, and ride. Your trainer reproduces every change in its gradient as you climb, and the wind is the live weather at the climb, so a headwind on an exposed section feels like one.

Save something for the last five kilometres. The climb is consistent until then, and the finish is where it bites.

Figures are approximate: sources measure the climb from slightly different points.
