It's HERE!

The competition is around the corner and we are brimming with excitement! All of our accommodation has sold out except for two remainning rooms in Saskia

The event is a true test of stamina and riding ability starting in the market town of Bourg d’Oisans at the base of Alpe d’Huez covering 174km route and a total of 5,180 metres of climbing back to the top of Alpe d'Huez...it is a massive challenge.

New Route

The RD1091 is closed at the ‘Grand Tunnel du Chambon’. As a result, the 2015 Marmotte route will change.

The 2015 round tour will feature similar numbers than the historical route: 170 km and 5100 m height gain.

The itinerary will be located in the Oisans and Maurienne areas, with mythical roads and cols:

  • Bourg d’Oisans (719 m);
  • Col du Glandon (1 924 m);
  • Montvernier hairpins (777 m);
  • Col du Mollard (1 630 m);
  • Col de la Croix de Fer (2 058 m);
  • Bourg d’Oisans (719 m);
  • Alpe d’Huez (1 880 m);
