La Transju’Cyclo 160 km: an epic escape between springs and valleys
Forged for true adventurers, the premier 156 km route charges westwards in the tracks of the pros, taking on the rolling roads of the 2026 Tour de France between Saint-Germain-en-Montagne and Andelot-en-Montagne. The tone is set. After heading towards Nans-sous-Sainte-Anne, you'll confront the day's ultimate test: the formidable climb to Montmahoux, the longest, most grueling challenge of the race.
What follows is a ride across wild, shifting landscapes, passing through Levier and the Col de Chalamont before diving into the mysterious scenery of the Frasne peat bogs. Then it’s time to refuel at the heart of the Jura Pellets sawmill to tackle the definitive decider: the Col du Lancier. Once past this peak, your reward is a sweeping forest descent before riding along the shimmering shores of Lake Remoray, followed by a fast-rolling section where you can push big gears all the way to Mouthe for a final breather.
The grand finale is an explosion of untamed nature, winding through the high valley of the Saine and plunging into the spectacular Gorges de la Languette via the historic village of Syam. An exceptional journey for total immersion in the sheer grandeur of the Jura.
