Weekend Itinerary
A long weekend tour based out of Lausanne, Switzerland - La Capitale Olympique.
Day 1 - The Lavaux and The Riviera
Panoramic route traversing The Lavaux - a UNESCO World Heritage area - riden by the TdF in 2022. The route takes us through the wine villages and terraces before dropping down to Vevey. Mount Pélerin is the local climb or the H/C Col de Jaman looming above Montreux can be a more demanding option. A 60-80km cafe cruise.
Day 2 - Col de la Croix Loop
Leaving Lausanne we ride across The Lavaux and the Montreux Riviera past the famous Château de Chillon before picking up The Rhone Valley and heading to the UCI Velodrome for a coffee stop. Then the iconic climb of the Vaud Alps - the 22km ascent of the Col de la Croix via the ski resort of Villars with stunning views of Les Diablerets. We descend to Aigle via Ormont-Dessus and return to Lausanne by train. A 120km/2000m - 8 hour ride with stops.
Day 3 - Col de Mosses Loop
From the shores of Lake Geneva we gradually climb through the Lavaux Terrraces, the Fribourg Pre-Alp meadows and the Gruyère Naturpark to take on the Col de Mosses - a 14km Cat 2 climb riden in the TdF and Tour de Suisse. At the summit we have a swooping 24km run down to Aigle where we return to Lausanne by train. A 120km/2000m - 8 hour ride with stops.
