The high point of an extraordinary summer season was the arrival on Tuesday 1 September of the 4th stage of the Tour de France, the 1st mountain stage of the 2020 Tour (a category 1 mountain pass for those in the know).

The riders set off towards Orcières from Sisteron, for a postcard-perfect route. A great spectacle in store! A not-to-be-missed event, both sporting and festive. Everything was planned to make the day a real celebration.
