Course
The start and finish are located in the town of Millau, well known for its marvelous viaduct over the Tarn, the highest bridge in the world with a height of 336.4m above the valley below.
The course will start with a steep climb out of the valley towards the east with an elevation of 450 m in the first 8 km.
The route consists of 40% woods and 40% gravel roads between fields. 20% is on paved roads.
The descent to the town of La Roque-Sainte-Marguerite on the La Dourbie river and then the steep climbs between kilometers 30-40 are the most difficult part of the route. There is also a passage through the military camp of Larzac. The last 2 km to the finish are on asphalt with a 100m elevation gain.
The 92 km route follows the same routes with a shortcut after 41 km and another after 58 km.
