Paris Clermont 2025: In the Footsteps of History
#

On September 6, 2025, the start of Paris Clermont will be given in Brétigny-sur-Orge, south of Paris. This 400 km cycling challenge is a tribute to one of the first major feats in the history of French cycling: the Paris-Clermont race completed by Henri Farman in 1892.

Back then, Farman took 17 hours and 38 minutes to connect Paris to Clermont-Ferrand, an achievement that marked the beginning of great endurance cycling races. Today, Paris Clermont takes on a new dimension, but the spirit of challenge remains the same: the goal is to push your limits, cross France using nothing but the power of your legs, and experience cycling history with every pedal stroke.

This 400 km route, from Paris to Clermont-Ferrand, is a true challenge for cyclists, providing an excellent test even for those attempting their first long-distance ride. Whether you’re an experienced cyclist or a passionate individual ready to push your boundaries, Paris Clermont 2025 offers an extraordinary experience.

The course passes through stunning landscapes, from the suburbs of Paris to the winding roads of Auvergne, offering not only a physical challenge but also a human adventure through France’s mountains and valleys. It’s more than just a race: it’s a tribute to the heritage of cycling, the spirit of camaraderie, and endurance.
