Itinerary
The itierary has not yet been set but below are a selection of the possible climbs for the Weekend in the Alps Package:
Col de la Loze: The "new kid in town".........since it's arrival this "car free" col created for cyclists has whipped up a storm. It has become one of the Tour de France's sweethearts practially overnight, and there is good reason for that. It winds and kicks up with some attitude, but when you reach the col the rewardes are unforgettable.
Cormet de Roseland: from the Beaufort side, leaving from Brides les Bains and looping right back round. This is a big 120km day and will end with riding back up to the chalet on the Courchevel climb, if everyone is feeling good
Col de la Madeleine: regularly climbed by the Tour de France as it is such a classic challenge. Named the “Serpentine of the Alps” this 26km climb is a real challenge and on a clear day the views across to Mont Blanc are well worth the climb.
Col de Petit St Bernard: peaking on the Italian border. It cruises up nicely and everyone loves it. Pop over the border and grab an Italian coffee….get some pics of the amazing view and then enjoy what all our guests have said is “the best, most fun descent” they have done…..a lovely flowing, cruising road back down to Bourg St Maurice.
