A sporting challenge and a traveler's adventure
L’Étape du Tour is, obviously, an immense sporting challenge. But it is also a tourist adventure which will enable you to discover some of the most beautiful parts of France. From Alpine valleys to the Tourmalet, the giant of the Pyrenees, every year the regions which host the event offer breathtaking scenery.
And because the love of cycling knows no borders, and because the Tour itself is a giant, L’Étape du Tour has given rise to several other races around the world, offering you even more stunning landscapes in the same race conditions as the Tour de France.
Now, at L'Étape Switzerland you can experience the same emotions in the heart of the Alps. Bern and the Emmental offer you the most beautyful sceneries, crispy clibs on legendary hills with a breathtaking view on the Bernese Alps. As well as a wonderful and very green city of Bern entwined by the river Aare and, before or after the race, inviting restaurants wherever your wheels will carry you.
