Parcours 2024
136 Km | 2975 hm | 3 ⏱️
World's first Gran Fondo exclusively for women. An epic parcours that offers all: climbing, descending, rolling. Small roads, great views. For 2023 we have modyfied it slightly to make it even more versatile.
3 timed sections (optional). |
87 Km | 1800 hm | 2 ⏱️
The well balanced shortened version of the Gran Fondo. Toughest part are the first 15km, that's when you are still fresh ... the rest is rolling and enjoying. Even beginners can do it, no stress, just take your time!
2 timed sections (optional). |
Switch Parcours?
The selection of parcours during registration is not binding. It just helps us planning the catering stations without food waste. But you are allowed to switch parcours even during the ride (2 junctions). If you participate in the race category, the timing system will automatically classify you for the parcours effectively ridden.

Pure fun or racing?
Well, you can have both. Maybe you feel it's time to measure yourself with others? Then register for the racing category (no additional charge). However, even in the racing category you can fully enjoy the views and the catering stations. There are only some timed sections that count for the classification.
