La Cannibale - Festival du Ventoux is a late-June cycling and walking event held in Bédoin, France, situated at the base of Mont Ventoux. The event centers on a mountain that cyclists approach with significant respect. The longest route covers 194.4 km with 4,756 meters of elevation gain, positioning this as a demanding challenge rather than a relaxed ride.
The event offers participants multiple ways to engage with the region. Friday features Discovery routes of 34.4 km and 47.7 km. Saturday's longer options include LaCannibalette at 154.1 km, the Bédoin Challenge at 87.6 km, and the Sault Challenge at 89.7 km. While cyclists and walkers share the festival atmosphere, the cycling routes are the primary focus, featuring multiple ascents around Ventoux instead of a single trip to the summit.
