Road cycling in Valmorel and Col de la Madeleine

Road cycling in Valmorel: valley rides and Col de la Madeleine

Plan valley rides, the greenway and the Col de la Madeleine around Valmorel, with a studio for four as your holiday base.

A cycling holiday in Valmorel can combine gentle valley rides and demanding mountain roads. Identify the actual starting point of every ride and plan the return to the studio: a route in the valley is a different day from a mountain ascent.

Three different cycling days

An easier valley ride

Greenway · Aigueblanche area

Choose a section and a return distance suited to your group using official information. Arrange a transfer to the start if you want to avoid finishing with the climb back to the resort.

Small roads for regular cyclists

Vallées d’Aigueblanche · plan the whole route

Compare the complete elevation profile, traffic and connecting roads. A valley route is not necessarily flat throughout or separated from cars.

Col de la Madeleine from the Tarentaise side

From the valley · a long mountain climb

The official route starts at La Plantaz on the D213 in La Léchère. This is a ride for trained cyclists. Use its official profile and track, rather than treating the studio as the route’s start.

Plan the Madeleine as a full day

Include the journey to the start, descent, food stops and return to Valmorel. An ascent distance is not your day’s total distance. The pass road is seasonal: confirm its opening and conditions before riding. An open road in the valley does not confirm that the pass is accessible.

A simple three-day rhythm

Day one: a short ride to check the bikes and get to know the roads. Day two: the main ride, chosen for the group’s fitness and the forecast, with a return plan. Day three: a gentler ride, a walk or a family day.

If some guests do not cycle, agree a meeting point and return time. Resort activities can fill a different day, depending on seasonal opening.

Check these details before booking

Ask the agency about bike transport, parking and storage. The studio does not promise a secure bike room, workshop or dedicated charging: confirm any essential needs. Check bike carriage on shuttles rather than assuming it is included.

Bring a helmet, suitable repair equipment, water and food. A working bike and an extra layer for a mountain descent matter as much as preparing for the climb.
