Jednodniowa wycieczka rowerowa z Bourg-Saint-Maurice do Saint-Michel-de-Maurienne

Ready for an epic Alpine ride? This route takes you from the lively mountain town of Bourg-Saint-Maurice to the charming valley village of Saint-Michel-de-Maurienne, traversing some of the most spectacular terrain in the French Alps.

Be prepared—this isn’t your average Sunday cruise! You’ll tackle about 115 km with over 6,000 meters of climbing (and about the same of exhilarating descents), peaking at nearly 2990 meters. Expect a mix of surfaces: about half the route’s surface isn’t specified, but you’ll encounter plenty of paved and asphalt stretches, with some unpaved and gravel sections thrown in—adventure guaranteed! Tracks and quiet roads dominate, with the occasional cycleway and path.

Bourg-Saint-Maurice is a well-known gateway to the Tarentaise valley, popular with both skiers and cyclists. The ride finishes in Saint-Michel-de-Maurienne, a classic cycling spot and the starting point for the legendary Col du Galibier climb. Pack for changing conditions, soak in the views, and get ready for an unforgettable Alpine challenge!
