Me and my friend are in France over the summer, and are going to watch stage 11, through the pyrenees. Its from Tarbes to Val d'Aran. The three mountains from which we want to choose where to watch are Toumalet, Col d'Aspin and Peyresourde. Just wondering if anyone has past experience of spectating from these peaks and can advice the best choice.
Also, what are the arrangements with camping up the mountain, whens best to get there? a couple of days before the tour comes through? Do they close the roads? Is there transport up the mountains specifically for spectators? The camping arrangements, do people congregate in certain areas or can you camp where you please?
Also we would appreciate any useful tips to generally do with the whole experience!
Many Thanks
