For motorbike fanatics (like Phil!), Chez Bouillon offers a unique
way to experience the splendour of the Pyrénées. The beautiful mountain
scenery and rural views are easily explored on bikes, which ride along
some amazing winding roads and mountain passages to discover new
spectacular views around every bend.
The breath-taking mountain backdrop provides an incredible scene for a
ride, and well-informed guide, Phil, will enthusiastically lead guests
along some of the most sinuous and exciting paths, which snake through
the mountains and reveal incredible views across the Pyrénées. |

The Tours, to name but a few, Col du Tourmalet, Cirque de Gavarnie and
Col d'Aspin (one of Phil's favourites!) can be adapted to suit all
levels of rider, with Phil happily leading the way. Some routes also
cross the Spanish border, in the beautiful Val d'Aran region and the
Reserva National de Benasque taking in the stunning N260. His local
knowledge means that Phil can also take guests along lesser-known
routes, which are equally breathtaking, and remain unspoilt by other
tourists, making them even more pleasant to visit.
The bike tours include bed and breakfast in the luxurious renovated
farmhouse, followed by one of Phil's carefully planned routes, topped
off with a delicious home-made evening meal from Belinda, who creates
hearty traditional French and English dishes to nourish hungry bikers! Secure undercover parking, bike wash area, clothes drying room and workshop facilities are all available.
The tours are designed for passionate bikers who enjoy fresh mountain
air and (mostly) wonderful weather (be prepared for all weathers and
road conditions!), with the chance to see some amazing sights, and the
opportunity to meet other enthusiasts.
