Experience some of the best riding in the French Alps with King of the Mountains, cycling-specific chalet.
The Tour de France isn't just coming to the area this year, it's actually coming through our village, before going on to climb the Alpe d'Huez, not once, but twice on Thursday 18th July 2013. We are really happy to see the inclusion of the col d'Ornon, climbed from Valbonnais, the first time it has been included since 2002.
The Giro d'Italia is coming to this area in 2013. On May 19th 2013, the race will finish on the col du Galibier via the Telegraphe. The Giro rest day will then be spent in Valloire before a stage start from there on May 21st 2013.
The experience of a lifetime in a weekend! The ideal short break for those with limited time. Includes an officially timed ascent, souvenir photograph and all meals. Contact us for further details and availability.
