Santa Monica Mountains - Climbing Camps

5 Days • 345 Miles • 37,000' Elevation Gain

Why spin on a trainer or ride in the cold when you can train in the mountains all winter long in southern California! Climb all day under typically sunny skies and temps in the 60's to 70's.

Road Bike Action

Many pro teams are now using the Santa Monica Mountains as a winter basecamp for training and now you can too. Lance trained here. So did Carlos Sastre. Team Saxo Bank and Cervelo spent time here before the Amgen Tour. Check out the recent article in Road Bike Action for rave reviews of the area. --->

The Santa Monica's tower above Malibu and the Pacific Coast like a jewel carved just for cyclists. We climb all the classic passes from Agoura Hills and Calabasas to Malibu and back. The climbs range from 3-10 miles with grades averaging 6-7%
and sections of 8-15%. Each day choose between an A or B Route for difficulty.

Choose your basecamp for the week. Our all inclusive package includes five nights at the Marriott Renaisance in Agoura Hills and all meals during the tour (see hotel and restaurant links on the sidebar).

Or if you'd rather camp or book your own hotel, you can attend just the Climbing Camp with no hotels or meals included. The $395 Climbing Camp only option still includes all our great SAG support during the ride, a lunch stop, route slips and van support if you need it. See the hotel and camping links on the sidebar to plan your week.
