Intro
La Marmotte Alpes Granfondo 2024 Entry Packages - Guaranteed Entry with an Official Tour Operator
Our old friend, the legendary Granfondo La Marmotte Alpes has been part of our calendar for 15 years. Truly one of the hardest 1 day Sportives in the French Alps. At a distance of 174km and 5000m of climbing the 2024 edition will take in Col de la Croix de Fer, Col de Galibier, Col de Telegraph, finishing at Alpe d'Huez. Be prepared for an epic ride and a challenge to remember.
Or ride the "Ultra Marmotte Alps" Ultra Fondo course for those keen to push themselves even further: after completing the classic course you will descend the Col de Sarenne and then return to the foot of Alpe d'Huez for a second ascent of the 21 Bends. A cold beer will surely be waiting for you after this challenge.....the Alpcycles team will be sure of this!!!!
