Jednodniowa wycieczka rowerowa z Huez do Valloire

Looking for a big day out in the French Alps? This route takes you from the famous village of Huez—yes, that Huez, at the foot of the legendary Alpe d’Huez switchbacks—all the way to the picturesque mountain town of Valloire. It’s a beast: expect about 85 km of riding, nearly 5,000 meters of climbing (and descending!), and maximum elevation just shy of 2,500 meters.

The ride is a real mix: about 73% of the surface is missing from our reports, but you’ll hit everything from quiet paved roads to gravel, ground, and alpine tracks. This means adventure—pack accordingly! You’ll find yourself high above the valleys, passing alpine meadows and likely spotting marmots (or at least hearing their whistles).

Valloire awaits at the end, a charming ski village in both summer and winter, famous for its cheese and welcoming vibe. Whether you’re aiming to conquer another big alpine classic or just soak in the mountain views, this ride truly delivers the goods.
