Saint-Maurice

Highlight • Settlement

The town of Saint-Maurice, located on the Rhône at the end of Lake Geneva, is tucked away at the foot of a looming rock face and is known for its rich past. The place, inhabited since classical antiquity, grew into a stronghold of Christianity at the end of the 3rd century AD. The abbey, the oldest monastery in the Avondland, which has been inhabited since the beginning of its existence, is now home to about forty Augustinians and a renowned school, with about a thousand students from all over French Switzerland.

Climb from Bex to Villars-sur-Ollon

Highlight (Segment) • Climb

Climb through the vineyards and through small mountain villages to the ski area of Villars sur Ollon.
The climb starts in Bex (427 m) and ends in Villar sur Ollon (1253 m) and climbs quite steadily at 8%. Due to the sun exposure and the good winter service, this can also be ridden early in the racing bike season.

Villars

Highlight • Settlement

Villars-sur-Ollon is a winter and summer resort in the Swiss canton of Vaud. The village lies at 1300 meters altitude, about 900 meters above the Rhone Valley.

The Col de la Croix and the Col du Pillon are popular mountain passes, but you can only ski in the summer months due to snow. During the event "Coop Ride the Alps Vaudoises" the pass for the car traffic is partially blocked.
