3 or 4 days cycling, approx 100km per day

Back-road climbs, classic climbs, flying descents, Alpine views, camper-vans lining the famous summits: you have it all in the Alps.

If you’d love to give the Alps a go but are daunted by the scale of the full Tour de France stages, this is for you. All transfers are included but if you’re feeling good (and game), you’re welcome to cycle full stages.

We’ll organise transfers or short cuts depending on the stages and routes, so that the stages become a more manageable 100km (ish). But you won’t miss any highlights: you still get the summit finishes, you still get the big name climbs and you still cycle with all our other Le Loop cyclists.

Each day, you’ll be amazed at what you’ve achieved…. Tour Magic.

Note on the Lite option: Some people love knowing they’ve completed full stages; others love knowing they’ll finish before dinner. For us, there’s no better or worse and everyone will be welcomed as equals… because if you’re happy cycling, we’re happy for you.

Dates and Stages TBC in October when the route is announced
