event village in alpe d'huez All riders are required to register in the Grand Depart Village on Wednesday 12th July between 8.30am and 3.00pm. The village will be located at Avenue des Jeux, 38750, Alpe d’Huez.

how to get there TRAIN: The closest train station is Grenoble, located at 63km from Alpe d’Huez.

PLANE: If you are travelling from outside of France, then flying into Grenoble, Lyon or Geneva is likely to be the quickest way to get to Alpe d'Huez. Alpe d'Huez is then a bus ride or private transfer (taxi or minibus) from these main hubs, unless you’re driving yourself. Grenoble is the closest airport (1.5 hours) but flight options are limited and can be more expensive, whereas Geneva has a greater choice of airlines offering better value flights but is a longer commute to resort (3 hours).

SHUTTLE & BUS: Once you reach the airport, bus or train station, the most popular option for onward travel to Alpe d'Huez is to take a transfer. Most transfers for Alpe d'Huez are offered on a private basis, and should be booked in advance. Alternatively you can choose to take one of the public buses from Grenoble via Bourg d’Oisans and on to Alpe d’Huez.

partners and activites in the grand depart village Haute Route Alpe d’Huez partners will be present at the Grand Depart village to educate and make sure you start the event fully prepared: • Mavic: Mechanical assistance and kit distribution in the Village from Mavic’s booth.
