Difficulty: Extreme terrain with frequent steep hills and long sustained climb

Conquer the "col de la Bonette" (2802m), highest paved road in Europe, in the stunning scenery of the Mercantour National Park!

Once the hunting preserve of Piedmont royalty, the Mercantour National Park extends across almost eighteen thousand acres and rises to reach a height of more than three thousand metres at the summit of Gélas. A stunning slice of the Southern Alps and the home to a wholly natural menagerie that includes ibex, marmots, wolves, golden eagles and bearded vultures. All within glimpsing distance of the blue waters of the Mediterranean sea.

With a "randosportive" formula, the new "Ultra Bonette" will be the occasion for you to live a real experience, beyond the "chrono" and the rankings. A day in high altitude, friendly, to discover a territory and a wild and exceptional course. The program? 5 COLS (Couillole, Bonette, Allos, Champs, Valberg), 212KM, 5600M DE d+.

All the ingredients are there for an unforgettable day of cycling! Are you ready for the challenge?
