Climb Description

Col d'Osquich is a relatively short and easy climb in the Basque Pyrenees. The climb from Musculdy is commonly descended on an eastbound direction of the Pyrenees Coast to Coast route, and generally serves as a warm up ahead of bigger tests to come.

The scenery is pleasant rolling green hills, rather than high mountains.

Col d'Osquich is open throughout the year.
