The hairpins of the Bédoin forest, the white scree above Chalet Reynard, the Nesque gorges, Gordes perched on its rock, the villages of the Dentelles: the Vaucluse rebuilt to the metre, for your smart trainer.
Get notified at launch Explore the mapEvery climb is timed from its village up to the observatory, with the white and yellow kilometre markers counting down the altitude and the gradient of the next kilometre, just like on the real road.
The royal road: the relentless forest, then the stone desert up to the summit.
The north face, its irregular ramps and Mont Serein, with the Giant in your sights.
The gentlest, between lavender and forest, up to Chalet Reynard and the last six kilometres.
All three on the same day? The "Triple Giant" badge is yours.
From a one-hour spin on the greenway to a full day around the Giant: real rides, recorded on the ground, and 25 to 40 km sections for a smart-trainer session. Pick a route on the map or in the list to discover it.
In-game footage, exactly as it appears on your screen.
Riding through Bédoin
Bédoin, 10 % in the forest
The Giant in the background
The Via Venaissia by MTBMont Ventoux Online rebuilds Provence from the most accurate public data: IGN terrain (the French national mapping agency), OpenStreetMap buildings and roads, aerial photographs. No invented scenery: the real road.
Your smart trainer receives the gradient of the road at every moment: the Bédoin forest, the ramps above Chalet Reynard, the final straight to the observatory.
Difficulty adapts to your level: a 10 % ramp can feel like 5 %.
Every house stands in its place, at its real height, with its shutters, tiles and shops. Village signs and street names roll by under your wheels.
Holm oaks and pines on the hillsides, the Nesque gorges carved into the cliffs, the vineyards of the Dentelles, Gordes perched on its rock: the landscape is the one you know, right down to the white road markings.
Other riders to follow or overtake (with drafting in their wheel), cars, tractors, flocks of sheep, cicadas in summer.
Live: the game fetches the real Vaucluse weather when you ride. Wind, gusts, temperature, clouds and rain, with a stronger, colder wind at the top of the Ventoux than at its foot.
The wind really counts: a headwind slows you down, a tailwind pushes you, and villages shelter you. Fancy something else? Pick Sunny, Mistral, Overcast or Rain before you set off.
Workouts from 30 minutes to 1 h 30 (sweet spot, threshold, VO2max…) ridden on the route of your choice, in ERG mode. Complete plans, including an 8-week "Get ready for the Ventoux", with your fitness and fatigue day by day.
The Ventoux grows with every hairpin. What awaits you up there, at 1,910 m? That's the surprise.
Every pedal stroke counts: experience is earned through effort, and consistency is rewarded. From Touring cyclist to Ventoux legend, fifty levels to climb.
