Itinerary 2024

Below are the unmissable 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 practically overnight, and there is good reason for that. It winds and kicks up with some attitude, but when you reach the col the rewards 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 and our "snowbank" favourite. 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.

The full itinerary will be confirmed closer to the start date so that we can be sure to give our riders the best possible experience whilst you are staying with us.

If you are a private group of 8+riders we can discuss your bespoke itinerary and dates too.

Bespoke

Bespoke packages are available for our Weekend Packages. Please get in touch if you have a group of 8+ riders who would like to ride the Alps Weekend on another date and we can put a bespoke package together just for you. Talk to Shelley at enquiries@alpcycles.com.

Your home for the weekend will be one of our favourite hotels situated in Brides Les Bains, Hotel Les Chalets. Aude and the team at this family run, relaxed hotel have been looking after Alpcycles guests for many years now.
