Non-competitive in nature

The only requirement is that the bike is technically sound and that you wear a protective helmet. All cycling events are non-competitive, and everyone who successfully crosses the finish line receives a commemorative L'Etape Slovenia medal.

The main event venue will be at Slovenski trg in Kranj, where a true L'Etape Slovenia village will be set up, featuring various event partners, culinary offerings, and an exhibition on the history of the Tour de France. Our ambassador, Matej Mohorič, will also be present.

The cycling events will take place in the immediate vicinity of the main venue in the afternoon, and the program with the schedule will be announced in due course.
