This season is breaking attendance records with nearly 1500 participants over the first three days (500 cyclists on June 12, 500 on July 10, and 450 on August 14)! Once a month, from June to September, the Ain department offers exclusivity to cyclists by reserving the climb of the pass from Culoz (road closed to vehicles).

Free and open climb, from 7 am to 3 pm!

– Not subject to the health pass as these are open climbs
– Grand Colombier climb from Culoz reserved for cyclists. The summit remains accessible to vehicles via Lochieu and Virieu-le-Petit
– Refreshments, diploma, and souvenir gift offered at the summit by the Ain department and the Fêlés du Grand Colombier. Refreshments are not subject to the health pass as they will be “to go”

The cycling day on September 11 also corresponds to the annual gathering of the Fêlés du Grand Colombier!
