“One of the toughest triathlon’s in the world”
The EDF Alpe d’Huez Triathlon is co-organised by Cyrille Neveu, 2002 long course World champion and Challenger World. It takes place in a unique location with the swim in the crystal waters of the Verney lake, exclusively accessible to swimmers for the triathlon event and surrounded by lush peaks. You then tackle the world famous bike section with both the short and long courses, climbing the legendary 21 bends of l’Alpe d’Huez.
The race finishes off with the beautiful run section 2000m above sea level. This is indeed a test but if you are an intermediate or advanced triathlete and haven’t ticked Alpe d’Huez off your triathlon wish list then don’t hang around, sign up now to avoid disappointment, last year the event sold out before May.
The event was voted by German Triathlon Magazine (Europe's biggest triathlon publication) as one of the 'must-do' triathlons in 2010.
