Challenge yourself by taking on Liège-Bastogne-Liège’s legendary climbs. The ultimate challenge is to complete the full 250 km distance, nearly identical to the one the pros will cover on race day the following day!

One slope after another, climbing and descending, all in the beautiful landscape of the Ardennes. Many cyclists dream of the iconic Liège-Bastogne-Liège course. Conquer symbolic LBL slopes spanning 250 kilometers in the ultimate challenge and immerse yourself in the breathtaking finale of LBL. Many cyclists dream of the iconic Liège-Bastogne-Liège course. Conquer symbolic LBL slopes spanning 250 kilometers in the ultimate challenge and immerse yourself in the breathtaking finale of LBL. Famous slopes such as Côte de Saint-Roch, the Côte des Forges and the Côte de la Roche-aux-Faucons, among others, can fill up the legs as well as the heart. Imagine yourself as Tadej Pogacar or Remco Evenepoel on the Côte de La Redoute deep into the finale or sprinting like Grace Brown or Demi Vollering to victory. In addition to the 250km, we also foresee an 80km and 150km course with as many iconic parts of La Doyenne as possible.

You will have to dose your strength well in the 250 km (about 4,400 elevation meters), the 150 km (2,700 elevation meters) and the 80 km (1,500 elevation meters) of the LBL Challenge.

You start and finish in Banneux. The full course will be posted here a few weeks before the big day!

Prize / Race Categories

Climbing times and the video of the summit will be recorded electronically on 3 mythical climbs: Redoute, Roche-aux-Faucons and Saint-Nicolas. And this by means of an electronic chip stuck on the frame plate that each registered participant will receive during the withdrawal of his participation pack. The frame plate must be installed on the bike handlebars in a visible manner.

Via 'My LBL Challenge', you can find your climbing time on each timed hill.
