La Transju’Cyclo 70 km: Between rolling valleys and wild gorges

Starting from Champagnole, this 70 km route invites cyclists to dive headfirst into the striking contrasts of the Jura. The adventure kicks off with a spirited climb toward the Nozeroy plateau, where the forest's shade gives way to sweeping pastures boasting a 360° panorama with the citadel's silhouette as your backdrop.

The climb peaks at the Col de Saint-Sorlin (km 29), the highest point of the race, before plunging down toward Mouthe for a true "Made in Transju" stop—the only feed station along the way. What follows is a pure ode to the wilderness: ride through the high Saine Valley all the way to Foncine-le-Bas, before taking on the thrilling descent through the Gorges de la Languette and passing through the historic town of Syam. A technical and visually stunning course, perfect for feeling the wild soul of the Jura Mountains.

This tour is open to both standard and electric bikes.
