About the race

Les Géants is organized by Matchy Cycling, an Annecy-based brand that makes environmentally-responsible cycling clothing. The 2026 edition is the fourth, with significant additions: two gravel courses (250 km and 600 km) alongside the road formats. The 300 km road course departs from Annecy and traverses the heart of the French Alps. GPS-tracked, with 24/7 medical assistance, but zero checkpoints, just you and the route.
