Come and spend an unforgettable cycling holiday in the Olympic city whose cycling reputation is well established. Bike&Trip takes you to the discovery of the mythical and more confidential passes around Albertville. 

 

The day of your arrival at the accommodation located in Albertville, after a briefing and a bike check, a group cohesion ride is planned.

 

Then the next day, you will discover one of the most beautiful mountains of the area: the Beaufortain with its famous dams and Cormet de Roselend with a must-see stop in Beaufort, well known for its cheese.

Then comes the massif de Lauzière on the Maurienne valley side with its famous and breathtaking lacets de Montvernier before switching to the Tarentaise valley side.

 

The next day, direction the massif des Aravis by more confidential passes but which have nothing to envy to the most mythical, riding between Savoie and Haute-Savoie with a passage through the massif des Bauges on the way back.

Then comes an excursion to the Vanoise National Park with the now famous and demanding col de la Loze.

 

The week will end with a ride through 3 mountains range  to end this week of cycling in Albertville in style.
