Although the Alpine stages will not prove too arduous, a one-stage detour in the Jura mountains is expected to prove tricky, with 56km of climbs over the last 120km in the seventh stage to Station des Rousses.
We had chosen Alpe d'Huez, a family resort at 1860m in the central French Alps, one of the five areas forming the Grandes Rousses massif, with links to Auris-en-Oisans, Oz-en-Oisans, Vaujany and Villard Reculas - setting for the famous final climb of the Tour de France in summer, it's a ski paradise in winter.
Located in the Massif Des Grandes Rousses, Alpe d'Huez boasts 10,000 hectares of skiing over a vertical drop of 2,120m with more than 248km of pistes.
