The Tour du Néouvielle is a 43 km point-to-point from Saint-Lary-Soulan to Vielle-Aure, taking runners through the heart of the Néouvielle nature reserve — a glacially sculpted plateau of granite and alpine lakes above the treeline. After climbing from the valley through ski slopes to Col du Portet, runners enter the reserve, reach Col de Bastanet (2,509 m), cross the Hourquette de Caderolles, and descend through a series of lakes before returning to the valley.
