Mont Ventoux is arguably the most iconic climb of the Tour de France. The ‘Beast of Provence’ stands at 1912m and is the highest mountain in the region by someway.

Mont Ventoux has been a favourite climb for the Tour de France organisers for many years and is almost certain to provide drama on the road. In recent years we have seen Chris Froome running up the mountain after a crash and who can forget the epic battle between Pantani and Armstrong back in 2000.

The climb also holds a special place in cyclist hearts after the tragic death of British rider Tom Simpson back in 1967. A memorial for the great rider can still be found half way up the mountain.

With all this great history around the climb it is no surprise that Mont Ventoux attracts thousands of cyclists from all over the world each year all trying to reach the summit in the best time they possibly can. Reaching the top of this almighty climb is a superb achievement and one that any cyclist will cherish forever.

There are three different route options that lead you to the Summit of Ventoux, the most popular of these is from the town of Bedoin. This route is 21.5km long with an average gradient of 7’5%.

The second option is from Malaucene and is equally tough to the Bedoin route.

The third option takes you from the town of Sault and is the easiest of the three options due to a steadier gradient.
