Hi All,
Am looking at heading out to the Alps for a few days of the tour.
Has anyone been recently and could give me some information about the best way to plan?
Thanks

Not really sure what you're looking for. But I would start with the route (have a look at the TdF website) pick which stages you want to see and then try booking some hotels. That tends to be the limiting factor. I saw it last year on Ventoux, Alpe d'Huez, Semnoz (Annecy) and the finish in Paris, apart from Paris, the biggest problem was getting nearby hotels.0

If you're planning on seeing the riders near or at the top of a mountain - get there early.
I've been caught out a couple of times with overzealous Gendarmes closing the road long before the riders arrive0
