The majestic Sarenne

The valley that climbs to the Col de la Sarenne is stunning, peaceful, and traffic-free. Enjoy it to the fullest, even allowing time for a short detour to the charming village of Besse. Especially between the Sarenne and Alpe d'Huez, it feels like riding among clouds.
The mighty Granon
145.3 km • 3540 m • Epic
In the last 30 years of the Tour de France, the Col du Granon has only been included on the race route once. Yet we all remember it: it was Jonas Vingegaard's first major victory over Tadej Pogacar, in a magical stage of the 2022 edition. With nearly 17 kilometers of climbing and a finish at 2,404 meters, the Granon is a real challenge.
High mountain adventure

Two of the world's most famous climbs in one epic day. Taking this loop clockwise, you can ascend the Croix de Fer and the Galibier via their most famous sides. For many kilometers, you'll see references to the Tour de France, which has shaped its history in these mountains, on the asphalt.
The last Confession

Along the river: La Bérarde
65.0 km • 1169 m • Moderate
Right where the Romanche and Veneon rivers converge, west of Bourg d'Oisans, the climb to La Bérarde begins. It's a secluded, secondary valley of great charm: ascending the Veneon River, you'll find breathtaking landscapes and pristine nature.
