Alpe d’Huez has been part of the Tour de France since 1952. The 21 numbered hairpins stretch from Bourg d’Oisans to the summit at 1,860m, and every one of them has a name and a piece of Tour history attached to it. A custom Alpe d’Huez poster captures all of that in a single clean map image, with your GPS trace if you have ridden it yourself, or the pre-loaded route if you are planning to. The elevation profile option adds the gradient below the map, showing every ramp and the steepest sections of the climb. Printed on 240gsm paper and shipped worldwide, rated 5 stars on Trustpilot.
“The pre-loaded route was perfect. Had the poster framed before my trip to the Alps. Ended up riding the actual climb the following week. It’s hanging next to my bike now.”

The Climb
Twenty-one hairpins. Fourteen kilometers. An average gradient of 8.1%, with sections hitting 13%. Alpe d’Huez has hosted more Tour de France summit finishes than any other climb, and its distinctive zigzag shape is instantly recognizable from above. A poster of the 21 hairpins is not just cycling art. For anyone who has ridden it, it is a record of something they worked hard for.
The switchbacks are the defining visual feature of this climb. Each one is numbered from 21 at the bottom to 1 at the top, and all of them show up clearly on the map.
Add the gradient graph below the map to show the full 1,100m of climbing and every steep ramp along the way.
