Haute Route (cycling)

Haute Route Cycling Series is a series of multi-day cyclosportive events held on mountain roads around the world.[1]

The premiere event is the Haute Route Alps, a seven-day, 800 km event from Megève to Nice. The five-day events are the Haute Route Pyrenees (Girona to Pau) and Haute Route Dolomites (Cortina d'Ampezzo to Bormio). The three-day events are in Crans-Montana, Ventoux and Florianópolis.

The Haute Route Group was founded by Michael Hartweg. In February 2021, the Haute Route Group bought the Gravel Epic and Race Across France.[2] In August 2021, the Haute Route Group was purchased by the Ironman Group.[3]
