Description

Mont St-Rigaud Tour features a few technical sections and gravel trails as well as one or two rather steep hills. The route’s longest climb is 440 meter long. The descent in front of the Mont St-Rigaud source is rather technical - watch out for stones! An important amount of the itinerary follows forested areas, making Mont St-Rigaud Tour rather shaded and ideal for summer training.

 

With its 1 012 meter altitude, the Mont St-Rigaud rises above the Rhône department. You can enjoy a full 360 degree view from the top of its observation tower.

Refuel with water from the Mont St-Rigaud source while you are close to it - according to legends, it has miraculous virtues!

While following the route, you will also reach the Viaduc du Châtelard, which is a 27 meter high monument rising above firs.

On your way back, stop by L’Epice’Crie for a break. This local product shop located at Col de Crie offers refreshing beverages and tasty snacks.
