Cycle racing



Details of the climb


The road to the ski station starts at Uriage-les-Bains from where the climb is 19 km (12 mi) long, gaining 1,235 m (4,052 ft) in elevation, at an average gradient of 6.5%. There are several sections in excess off 11% in the early stages of the climb.[3] For the Tour de France, the summit is at an elevation of 1,730 m (5,680 ft).[4]

The ski station can also be reached by a more northerly route, from Uriage-les-Bains via Saint-Martin-d'Uriage. This climb is 18.2 km (11.3 mi) gaining 1,315 m (4,314 ft) in elevation, at an average gradient of 7.2%.[5]


Tour de France


The climb of Chamrousse was used in the mountain time-trial in the 2001 Tour de France. Lance Armstrong won the stage (#11) on 18 July 2001,[4] when he took just over an hour to complete the hors categorie climb from Grenoble to the ski resort.[citation needed] In 2012, Armstrong was disqualified from winning this stage, following the Lance Armstrong doping case.[4]

The ski station was re-visited by the race on 18 July 2014.[6] The winner of the 197 km (122 mi) stage 13 from Saint-Étienne was the Italian Vincenzo Nibali who increased his lead over his nearest rivals, with Richie Porte, who began the day second overall, losing nine minutes on the climb.[7]
