Bourg d'Oisans

The market town of Bourg d'Oisans sits at the base of Alpe d'Huez (made famous by the Tour de France and now the Megavalanche) and has a population of approximately 3000 people. It is based in the Isere department of France and lies at the point at which six contrasting steep valleys (known collectively as the Oisans) meet at 750 metres above sea level.

Due to its central position in this area, Bourg d'Oisans is the ideal location for a mountain bike holiday in the Alps. And because it is at the base of all the mountains all the rides will end with a sweet singletrack decent into the town.

The town has 10 bars and 15 restaurants, campsites, hotels, an abundance of patisseries and loads of shops so is an ideal place to explore and chill after a days riding in the mountains

For your day off you can go to the outdoor swimming pool , Museum of Minerals and Fauna in the Alps, go to the cinema or catch a bus to the capital of Isere and the Alps the nearby bustling city of Grenoble.
