Sunday 16 July 2017

Duration: 4 days, 3 nights Distance: 178km

The 2017 Etape du Tour is your opportunity to ride stage 18 of the 2017 Tour de France. This year’s Etape will go from Briançon to Col d’Izoard. You will be riding a fully supported replica of the Tour de France stage, on 100% closed roads on exactly the same route as the Pros just days later. Sports Tours International is an official tour operator of the Etape du Tour and we have a wide selection of hotels in and around the start in Briançon, with guaranteed entry, airport transfers, event support and much more.

DETAILS
The 2017 Etape du Tour will take place in the Alps on Sunday 16 July. The start is in the town of Briancon in the Serre Chevalier Valley and the finish comes 178km and 2 major climbs later on top of the Col d’Izoard. Briancon and the nearby villages of Villeneuve La Salle Les Alpes and Chantemerle are the best places to stay as you will be very close to registration, the event EXPO village and the start and finish.

Serre Chevalier Valley
The Serre Chevalier valley is about 15 kilometres long and runs from Monetier Les Bains at the foot of the Col du Galibier and Col du Lautaret on one side to Briancon at the foot of the Col d’Izoard on the other side. Following the valley from Monetier to Briancon you will first come to the village of La Salle Les Alpes (also called Villeneuve) and then to Chantemerle (also called Saint Chaffrey) before reaching Briancon. Briancon and Chantemerle and Villeneuve are the ideal places to stay for the 2017 Etape du Tour. We offer a variety of hotels. Below you find a summary of the logistics:
- Friday – Airport transfers or self-arrival
