MEDIOFONDO

The Vaud Alps pass trilogy (and its surprise)

Departing from Villars-sur-Ollon, the Mediofondo route takes participants through the classic passes of the Vaud Alps. The ascent of the Col de la Croix from the Vaud resort is the perfect warm-up for the Col du Pillon from Les Diablerets. After a short incursion into the canton of Berne near Gstaad, the Col des Mosses offers a Grand Tour atmosphere, with the Tour de France passing through in 2022 and the numerous Tours de Suisse and de Romandie. Before arriving at the summit of the Col de la Croix, climbed by its other side, the ascent to La Forclaz will introduce participants to a little-known but equally attractive climb in the region. This "short" and explosive route is the perfect alternative for many.
