Col de la Madeleine

Highlight • Cycleway

Pretty pass with superb landscapes of surrounding vineyards. A good warm-up before Ventoux, and a must between Bédoin and Malaucène.

We did the bike tour in the fall. Because of the wind on Mont Ventoux, it felt even colder than the actual temperature. So, be sure to pack warm clothes; maybe even change your clothes at the summit. It didn't get any warmer during the descent ;). We would have liked to have brought warm gloves. Overall: fantastic!

Pass of Storms

Highlight • Mountain Pass

The storm pass is one of the last bends of the final ascent. We discover a magnificent view and very close is the memorial dedicated to Tom Simpson who died July 13, 1967 during the Tour de France of that year.

The last 6 kilometers demand everything, wind gusts and constantly steep ascents.

Climb from Bedoin, the classic climb in the Tour de France.
Simply a fantastic route, especially when the Mistral isn't blowing.
