The Col de Peyresourde (Occitan: Còth de Pèira Sorda) (elevation 1,569 m (5,148 ft)) is a mountain pass in the central Pyrenees on the border of the department of Haute-Garonne and Hautes-Pyrénées in France.

Starting from Bagnères-de-Luchon (east), the Col de Peyresourde is 15.3 km (9.5 mi) long.

[3] On this side mountain pass cycling milestones for cyclists are placed every kilometre.

The col was crossed twice in the 2012 Tour de France, firstly on Stage 16 from Pau to Bagnères-de-Luchon, when it was ranked a Category 1 climb,[6] and again on the following day, when it was unranked, with the stage continuing on to the ski station at nearby Peyragudes.

[7] It was used again in the 2016 Tour de France on Stage 8, from Pau to Bagnères-de-Luchon, which saw eventual race winner Chris Froome make a daring descent attack from the top of the Col that caught many of his main rivals off guard, resulting in a solo stage victory.
