We're run by a fanatical cyclist so we understand your needs.Whether you're an experienced rider or just starting out you can be sure our friendly staff and many years of experience will help you get the best out of your holiday.

We have 3 chalets (capacity of 10 persons in each) in La Tania and access to many more so space for accommodation is almost unlimited.

The accommodation is possible on a catered or self catered basis.

For transport we have three 8 seater minibuses, so can do pickups from the nearby airports (Geneva and Chambery) and transport cyclists to the local races and famous climbs nearby. For example: Col de Madeleine, col d’Iseran, Cormet de Roselend, Courchevel Altiport finish, La Plagne, Col de Forclaz, Col de Saisies, col des Aravis, col de Tamie, col de Glandon etc.
