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

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.

Sault

Highlight • Settlement

Located at an altitude of 800 meters, Sault is known for its lavender fields, and for being one of the three starting villages for the ascent of Mont Ventoux, the other two being Bédoin and Malaucène. The climb through Sault is easier compared to the other two villages, because this town is located higher up.

September 17, 2025,Auf den Mont Ventoux und zurück nach Sault
Today we went on a dream tour up Mont Ventoux. The wind was really strong for the last 3 km. But once we reached the top, we had a fantastic view. We could see all the way to the Mediterranean, which you can see on the horizon in photo 17. Anyone vacationing here should cycle up there, but only when …

The worst part is the uphill headwind on the final climb

Today I fulfilled a long-held dream and climbed the mythical Mont Ventoux. What a mega experience. It is impressive how many cyclists want to conquer this peak by bike.
I chose the ascent from Sault. It is the ascent with the lowest gradient, because I was riding a gravel bike.
The journey there is an experience in itself. You see …
