Giants of the Alps
With Vélorizons
A brand new cycling route between Savoie and Dauphiné, featuring the legendary passes and climbs of the Tour de France.
For over 100 years, images of the Tour de France's legendary climbs and their heroes have fed our imagination. And the legendary mountain roads of Savoie and Dauphiné have lost none of their fascination. It's only natural for us to offer you a (re-)discovery of these giants of the Alps, brought together here in a 7-day loop that's as original as it is demanding.
Take on a string of legendary passes, including the Cormet de Roselend, Iseran, Galibier, Glandon, Croix de Fer and Madeleine. We do the Tour proud by tackling the mythical climb of Alpe d'Huez and its 21 bends, that of La Toussuire and finally the famous Montvernier laces, beautifully clinging to the cliffs of the Maurienne valley.
A one-day loop around Bourg d'Oisans allows us to take full advantage of the wild roads of this alpine cyclo paradise. This tour takes in the best bits of mountain biking history, while riding in the footsteps of the heroes of yesteryear. Whether you're a seasoned pass hunter or an amateur-admirer, write your own history.
