FOREST'CIME - 25/26/27 JUNE 2021
Presentation
Welcome to the sixth edition of the FOREST’CIME organised and run by the association “La Forestière”.
We sincerely hope, through this event, where the spirit of conviviality and solidarity are uppermost, to satisfy
your vision of what cycling should be. These values found in all areas of sport should be encouraged and it is
through these values that the individual effort is rewarded in a collective context. It is within this spirit that we
have concocted the course for this year’s event that will take through excitingly-varied countryside and some
astonishing sites too. You will be fully supported from the start to the finish of the sportive by a team of volunteers,
at your service, who will help you get the most from the event. You will also be accompanied on the
course by members of the “La Forestière’s” team of riders, ambassadors of our association.
La FOREST’CIME is a three-day stage cycling tour starting and ending in the town of Arbent (01100).
Stages
– Friday, June 25th 2021 : Arbent – Hauteville Lompnes
– Saturday, June 26th 2021 : Hauteville Lompnes – Bellecin Orgelet
– Sunday, June 27th 2021 : Bellecin Orgelet– Arbent
The race takes place at a free pace for the participants on the connecting routes between the villages stages without timing and may be assimilated to a cyclotourism-type trial which does not give rise to classification.
However, a part of the course is timed (one climb per day) which allows to perform a mountain performance classification.

With a start at the gate of the PARC NATUREL DU HAUT JURA, La FOREST’CIME owes its name to its exceptional route through the mountains of the AIN and the JURA, with its famous passes dominated by the summit of fir trees.
