  • The Le "Défi des deux cols" is a route designed for experienced cyclists. Conquer the demanding climbs of Mont du Chat and Col de l’Epine — legendary ascents made famous by the Tour de France.

  • Climb the legendary Mont du Chat ! From its summit, enjoy a breathtaking view before descending towards Le Bourget-du-Lac. The transition along the Voie Verte will give you a chance to recover on the way to Chambéry, before tackling the 12 km ascent of the Col de l’Epine. On the final descent, don’t miss the stunning panorama over Lake Aiguebelette from the Epine viewpoint.
