The expert's opinion

No specific level is required, you simply need to be able to complete the steps in good conditions.

Approximately 20km/h average speed, which is perfectly OK for regular cyclists.

We may need to have one group start before the other in order to "level out" the levels if necessary.

In figures

  • Average duration/day: 5h30
  • Average distance/day: 127 km
  • Average daily elevation gain: 1700 m
  • Average daily descent: 1700 m
