The epic snow walls of the Galibier

Who has never dreamed of climbing the Col du Galibier (2645m) with its mythical snow walls? This world-famous pass with its postcard-like landscapes is waiting for you.

The Galibier Challenge is the first high mountain gran fondo on the French calendar. This fun event offers cyclists a nice challenge early in the season. The event takes place just a few days after the official opening of the climb.
