Cycling in Oisans

Climbing the Alpe d’Huez, Lautaret, the Croix de Fer or the Glandon passes, the territory of the Oisans is a famous spot for professional cyclists and passionate amateurs.

L’Oisans territory has the most beautiful and most popular mountain passes, but it also has the hardest ones in the Cycling History. This is why the most prestigious cycling races have made this region home: the Tour de France, Alpe d’Huzes, La Marmotte, La Vaujany, etc …

The Chalet La Perle de l’Oisans is located in the geographic centre of all these big names.
