Focus on the challenge Eterlou Trophy - La Meije

The Eterlou raid in Dévoluy on 4 and 5 July, and the Ultra Raid de La Meije in La Grave on 12 and 13 September, are joining forces to organise a challenge made up of the 2 events: the Trophée l’Eterlou – La Meije!

An extraordinary sporting challenge, 100% Hautes-Alpes, which will allow participants to ride through the sumptuous landscapes of the Dévoluy massif and the Meije region.

Well established in the mountain bike raid calendar, the two events have much more than just mountain biking in common. Commitment, love of their region and conviviality unite the two organising teams, who this year are creating a challenge open to all participants registered for the two events. The trophy will be awarded in two formats:

Competitors who take part in the Raid 1 jour à L’Éterlou and the Raid Ultra 1 jour à la Meije.
Competitors who take part in the Raid 2 jours à L’Éterlou and the Raid Ultra 2 jours à la Meije.

The regulations!

Carpool to L'Éterlou!

Every year, hundreds of mountain bikers come to Dévoluy to take part in L’Éterlou.
Many come from the same regions… often without knowing it.
To facilitate access to the site and limit the number of cars in the mountains, participants can organise car pooling between mountain bikers via the Altio platform.
It’s as simple as offering a ride or joining another participant’s ride, then sharing the road with other mountain bike enthusiasts.
– More cars, more encounters.
