The Transmaurienne Vanoise - 6000 begins in Lanslevillard, located in Savoie's Vanoise region. This July mountain bike race covers 186 kilometers and features 6,770 meters of elevation gain. It is part of the Transmaurienne Vanoise competition schedule, positioned alongside the more challenging 9000 route, distinct from the event's family ride options.
The race is part of a larger VTT series offered in multiple formats, such as the 6000, 9000, Sportive, Ultra, and family rides. Kikourou includes it in a comprehensive endurance-sport calendar. This platform allows participants to share race reports, GPS tracks, results, videos, forum discussions, and training logs, enabling the event to exist as both a competition and a collective archive for mountain bikers following the series.
