Description

As part of its cycling plan, the Haute-Savoie departmental council is opening up a legendary mountain pass to cyclists every Tuesday, between 9am and 12pm, during the summer season.

Saddle up, choose your gear, find your rhythm, and attack the Col de Bassachaux on August 11.
You set off pedalling, after the parking lot of the hotel-restaurant La Perdrix Blanche in Pré la Joux. And the finish will be at the signposts at the top of the Col.
Go for it!

No rankings, no bibs, no pressure. Just the desire to climb in freedom!

Open to all:

This operation is open to a wide audience, from experienced cyclotourists to beginners discovering the discipline. The aim is to promote this gentle mode of travel and enhance the department's remarkable climbs, by offering safe access conducive to cycling.
