You don't have to travel to Italy or France to find big climbs with fantastic scenery! Climbing Camp Only.

The Southern Sierras tower above the California desert and their craggy peaks hide some of the longest and steepest climbs in North America. On this 5 day Cycling Camp we climb all the classic passes around Bishop, Big Pine, Independence and Lone Pine.

The climbs on this California Cycling Camp range from 8-22 miles with grades averaging 6-8% and sections of 9-17%. Each day we offer up one main climb with an optional second climb if you haven't had enough. Don't let the mileage fool you! These are big climbs.
