Cyclists, welcome to the Upper Tarentaise, a bike-lovers’ playground.
Our region abounds in dedicated trails: bike paths, circuits for electric bikes and the legendary cols of the Tour de France.
You can explore splendid scenery all year round, whatever your level, and know that wherever you go, you can find dedicated accommodation and facilities.
Here in Bourg Saint Maurice – Les Arcs, the bike reigns supreme with 12 km of bike path, a pump track, plus the trails in the les Arcs – Peisey Vallandry Bike Park and 3 cols where you can push yourself to your limits!
Considered one of the most beautiful climbs in the Alps, this pass offers a varied profile and a succession of landscapes to reach its summit at almost 2000 m altitude.
From the center of Bourg Saint Maurice, almost 20 km of climbing at 6% awaits you. From the start, you can enjoy the view over the valley, but the passage through Bonneval les Bains marks the start of the difficulties, in particular a winding section over 2 km at an average gradient of 8%. The passage to Pont Saint Antoine offers a brief respite before a long finish in the middle of the mountain pastures, with views of the surrounding peaks.
From 01/06 to 31/10.
L'itinéraire est balisé.
Climb equipped with mile markers indicating percentage of slope, altitude and distance to summit.
The ascent follows the D902 from Bourg Saint Maurice and is marked out in its entirety. It is divided into 4 main sections: the ascent above the valley, the passage of the switchbacks, the entrance to the Chapieux valley and the finish.
