The Tourmalet Road 🇫🇷 The Highest Pass of the Pyrenees - Scenic Drive

Embark on a scenic drive through the **Col du Tourmalet**, the highest paved pass in the French Pyrenees, standing at 2,115 meters (6,939 feet) above sea level. This road, nestled between the departments of **Hautes-Pyrénées**, offers not only spectacular vistas of jagged mountain peaks and verdant valleys but also a journey through rich history. First opened in **1846**, the Tourmalet quickly became famous for its rugged beauty and challenging conditions.
The *Tour de France* has made this pass legendary, featuring it over *80 times* since its debut in *1910**, making it the most climbed pass in the race's history. Fun fact: the name *Tourmalet comes from the Occitan "Tour Male," meaning *bad detour*, a nod to its once-daunting, treacherous nature.
Whether you're drawn by the region’s wildlife, history, or the sheer thrill of winding roads, this video captures the Tourmalet's unique blend of natural splendor and adventure.if you♥ liked it, leave a comment below⬇, our videos are 💵sponsored by ... us😅 and by your likes🥰! so to💪 support us 👉SUBSCRIBE 🔔and leave us a 👍LIKE. thank you🙏
