Port d'Envalira 2,408m
Highest mountain road in Andorra

The highest climbs in the Pyrenees are not found among the popular French Tour de France passes, but in the microstate of Andorra. The highest of these passes is the connection between Spain and France across the microstate, which reaches an altitude of over 2,400 metres at its peak.

Start: Andorra La Vella 1,037m
Altitude gain: 1,388m
Distance: 27km
August 2025

With an average gradient of 5%, the route climbs steeply near the village of Canillo. The turn-off towards the pass is on the short flat section at kilometre 22.

Start in Andorra La Vella, the highest capital city in Europe

You quickly gain altitude with a view back to the city.

Simply follow the wide CG-2 road. Although this is partly a multi-lane road for motor traffic, there are mostly clearly separated cycle lanes uphill, which are used by many racing cyclists. Motorists here are used to cyclists.

Every thousand metres, a sign indicates the remaining distance for cyclists.

After about 22 kilometres, you reach the turn-off towards the pass summit, while motorists mostly choose the direct route through the tunnel towards France.

It is only from here that the climb becomes really beautiful. The traffic decreases significantly, the road becomes narrower and the view of the landscape is impressive.

Looking back

Several hairpin bends wind their way up.

Little motorised traffic on the way to the pass

The road winds its way up in wide bends.

The gradient is moderate on this last stretch to the summit.

Summit reached in unusually high temperatures

View from the top of the pass down towards the eastern approach to the French border.
