DVÉLOS LAC ANNECY 2026

DVÉLOS Lac Annecy takes place in late August in Annecy, Haute-Savoie, in the French Alps. The event primarily features cycling, offering both road bike and gravel routes, and also includes a road running option. Participants can choose from distances of 24 km, 33 km, 55 km, 71 km, 110 km, and 130 km, catering to both short rides and significant mountain challenges. The routes navigate the lake and mountain landscape surrounding Annecy, with Semnoz being a key feature. The Grimpée du Semnoz is a 24 km climb, and the Parcours du Semnoz is a 130 km route designed for experienced cyclists. The event offers a distinction between timed ('chrono') and non-timed ('rando') options, providing relaxed rides for some. The Tour du Chatel is presented as a more accessible option for the day. The atmosphere is described as festive, indicating it is suitable for participants beyond those focused solely on racing.
