Cezanne Cyclo Classic - Aix-en-provence 2026

The Cezanne Cyclo Classic begins in Aix-en-Provence, covering 82 km for participants riding classic bicycles, including vintage models or contemporary bikes with a classic aesthetic. This event is not presented as a competitive race; its appeal lies in a communal day with distinctive bicycles, featuring 1,200 metres of elevation gain within a compact route. The route proceeds east from Aix along the Route Cézanne, noted by the organizers as France's sole classified road. Cyclists will head towards the Sainte-Victoire massif, a limestone mountain famously associated with Paul Cézanne. The course incorporates notable roads that traverse the region's heritage locations and Provençal scenery.
