6 Échappée Stages
Discover Belgium in a unique way: ride one route per month with your cycling buddies between April and September. Experience a new route each month, exploring an alternative cycling season from the Condroz to West Flanders.
The timing is flexible; you can plan your own departure and arrival. Whether you choose to ride alone or in a group, the choice is yours. At the end of the month, the winner in each category will receive a free Bodhi shirt. Ride your way to the top and earn your own leader’s jersey!
Exceptional Locations
After exertion comes relaxation. At the end of each trail, you’re invited to savor a local speciality at a remarkable location.
Explore a charming bike bistro, a brewery, an abbey, or take a dip in the water... Treat yourself to a complete experience. Both the unique location and the local delicacy are included!

La Grande Échappée
If you want to experience this Échappée adventure with fellow enthusiasts, mark the second Sunday of the month in your diary.
This is not a guided ride with an organised departure, but rather an invitation to come on the same day and potentially share the adventure with other participants on bikes. If you're looking for a true platoon atmosphere on the road and at the café, then be sure to ride with us!
C’est la Grande Échappée.
Rankings
There are several marked sections on the route where you can earn points during your ride. Challenge yourself and other cyclists for a chance to win a Bodhi leader’s jersey!
Each month, you have the opportunity to compete in four categories: Climber, Sprinter, Flandrien, and Combined. Imagine yourself as a pro rider and embrace the sporting challenge on top of this unique experience.
