Enduro MTB race

The Enduro d'Aure

The first edition of this enduro race took place in 2008. Since then, the race has been recognized as both physically and technically demanding by amateur and professional riders alike.

Enduro mountain bike racing: A series of timed descents called “special stages”. To reach the start of each “special stage”, riders must use trails or roads (called “liaisons”)without motorized assistance (except for electric mountain bikes). The times for each stage are added together to determine the fastest rider.

Mountain biking Enduro now has a large following, and the sixth edition of the Enduro d’Aure in 2022 is proof of that, with 190 participants, including around 50 kids… the next generation is here!

The Enduro World Series

One of the rounds of the Enduro World Séries (international pro competition in several rounds) takes place every September during the Pyrénées Bike Festival de Loudenvielle in the Louron valley. The first edition took place in 2019.

In 2022 it’s the final that’s organized to everyone’s delight!

Children’s races are also organized: enduro kids, pumptrack challenge…

La kbourre

On the Saint-Lary BIKE PARK

The KBourre was created in 2010. This race is held at the Saint-Lary Bike Park and has built up quite a reputation ever since. Riders love to come and take on this technical track with approved timing.
The track runs along the Pla d’Adet ridge between Soum and the school plateau.
