The town of Bédoin at the base of the Mont Ventoux is the base of this 3 day Cyclo-Sportive.

We are pleased to offer travel packages with airport transfers, staff support and hotel in Bedoin to the 2019 Haute Route Ventoux.

DETAILS
The concept of the Haute Route Ventoux is like the other 3-day Haute Route events like the new Haute Route Oman, the Haute Route Dolomites and Haute Route Alpe d’Huez

Consecutive timed stages (including one ‘Marathon Stage’ and one individual time-trial), legendary cols, minimal flat sections, mountain top finishes where possible and individual timing. All this with Haute Route Pro support to emulate the Pro Cyclist experience as much as is possible for an amateur cyclist.

Le Geant de Provence, de Kale Berg, the Giant of Provence are just a few names for this iconic mountain in the Provence. Now it’s your opportunity to conquer this mountain during the 3-day Haute Route Ventoux. With three ascents of legendary Mont Ventoux, some beautiful cols in its foothills and the incomparable landscapes of French Provence, the third edition of the Haute Route Ventoux promises three days of memorable cycling from October 4th to 6th 2019.

Each stage will start in Bédoin and finish with one of the three ascents of Mont Ventoux. Finishing atop the Géant de Provence, you will be able to collect your bag at the summit prior to descending into the French Provencal town of Bédoin for the services of the Haute Route village.

The Haute series of events are widely regarded as the pinnacle of amateur cycling experiences in Europe. The Haute Route Ventoux will be based in one place for 3 days, hugely simplifying logistics, meaning you can stay in one hotel, will no longer have to pack your bags before each stage and will be able to bring family and friends along as well.

Mild weather in early October makes the region around the Ventoux a highly attractive destination and Bédoin is easily accessible. With its accommodating schedule (late arrivals on the Thursday and early finish on the Sunday) you will be able to travel to the event easily for a long weekend of memorable cycling.
