Megavalanche returns to Alpe d’Huez

Megavalanche returns to Alpe d’Huez

Published : 22-Jun-2023 09:42


The Megavalanche mountain biking event returns to Alpe d'Huez next month from 03-09 July.

Since 1995, thousands of mountain bikers from around the world have enjoyed this unique race, which features a mass start at 3330m above sea level to the finish at Allemont, 2600m further down the mountain.

The first section is through snow before racers reach a narrow, rocky single-track trail, including both downhill and rolling sections toward the finish.

The Megavalanche is the longest downhill mountain bike race in the world…and probably the craziest too!
