Calling all climbers! If you have been building power in the studio, this 52km loop is where you get to test it on the road. With 800m of elevation gain, this route climbs steadily from Rolle up through Mont-sur-Rolle and Gimel. We will traverse the magnificent Jura foothills before a long, rewarding descent through Longirod, Marchissy, and Le Vaud.

Highlights:

Sweeping vineyard panoramas and an amazing sense of accomplishment at the top.

Considerations:

This is a Moderate/Hard ride and a fantastic opportunity to practice sustained, steady climbing (a perfect primer if you want to tackle the Barillette later this season!).

Café & Vibe:

We will plan a well-deserved recovery and fuel stop along the route at Café Gimel, the Gimel Tea Room, or Auberge communale La Charrue.
