RIDE OMAN’S FIRST EVER HAUTE ROUTE 
A CHALLENGE NOT TO BE MISSED
An epic challenge awaits!
Be part of the first ever Haute Route event in the Middle East, the perfect opportunity for a winter getaway, to race in a warmer climate and climb the famous Jebel Akhdar.
Having ridden in Oman and on the Jebel Akhdar mountain before, reigning Giro d’Italia champion and 4x Tour de France winner, Chris Froome commented, “It's a really challenging ride, especially in the tough conditions out there in Oman. I've never been to the summit, but I've heard it's beautiful. I wish everyone well for the race next year”.
Providing three days of incredible racing, covering 238km with 5,250 metres of vertical gain, it is a test of stamina and skill for any cyclist.  It is a once in a lifetime opportunity to ride through Oman’s scenic Al Hajar mountain range and climb the iconic Jebel Al Akhdar (The Green Mountain); one of the most breathtaking spots in Oman which is usually closed to adventure tourists and sporting events.

Look out for GCN who have just visited Oman, Emma Pooley and Chris Oppie had exclusive access to the course, tackling the most challenging climbs. Keep an eye on our social channels from Sunday to see how they got on! 
Like all Haute Route events, participants will benefit from a professional cycling set up including safety, mechanical and medical support on the road, massages, meals and briefings  and full logistical support, meaning that the focus is exclusively on the riding. In addition, various accommodation packages are available, don’t miss out and sign up HERE
