After a 10km liaison from the Bellecin water sports centre towards the village of Orgelet, the day’s cyclosportifs will line up at the start of the FOREST’CIME GRANFONDO in the heart of the Terre d’Emeraude region. The FOREST’CIME GRANDFONDO is a new cyclosportive that criss-crosses the small mountains of the Jura and the Ain Valley.
After a start in the mountains and a first refreshment stop at Saint Julien sur Suran, the cyclosportifs climb up to the village of Arinthod and its foothills, before joining the Ain valley to ride alongside Lake Coiselet and discover the magnificent Château de Cornod.
The return journey takes in the small mountains on a challenging route to reach the village of Orgelet and its fortified church dating from the XVᵉ century with a belfry with an imperial domed bell tower and lantern, the terminus of this magnificent stage.
