Coupe des Alpes

HOME » Magazine » » » Coupe des Alpes

Rallystory, organiser of the Coup des Alpes for over 30 years, has announced a route for 2020 that will differ considerably from those travelled in recent years. Participants will have about twenty passes to cross, a large majority of which have not been used in recently, including the Col de Saint Raphael in the Southern Alps. 

Starting from Evian on the shores of Lake Geneva on 11 June, the rally, which is untimed and non-competitive, finishes on the Croisette in Cannes on the 13th, after night stops in Mègeve and Serre Chevalier.  With the victories in the ‘60s of Bernard Consten with Giulietta, TZ and GTA, Roger De Lageneste in an SZ and Jean Rolland with an SZ and a GTA, the Alfa Romeo marque holds the record for the greatest number of successes in the event. It is therefore natural that in 2020 Alfa Romeo will be the featured marque.
