Description
More than just a cycling event, this is above all a genuine human adventure : meetings, exchanges and the sharing of experiences between cyclists of all ages and from all backgrounds, all in this lovely setting that is the Val d’Arly, in Savoie.
The departure point for this event is the village of La Giettaz, nestling at the bottom of the Col des Aravis and still a cyclist’s paradise due to its proximity to some of the Alps’ most renowned mountain passes.
On the programme this year are some amazing climbs : col des Aravis, col de la Croix Fry, col du Marais, Faux col des cyclotouristes, col de la Forclaz, Bizanne 1500, col des Saisies, col de la Colombière, col du Prè, col de Meraillet, Cormet de Roselend...
