/ move to finish.
Registration fees : The registration fees are 58 / 29 € for A tournament, 50 / 25 € for B tournament and 30 / 15 € for the C tournament. Half rate is for <20 years old players and for FIDE masters with Elo > 2200.

Arrival : It is strongly recommanded to arrive on july 13th because on July 14th, with the Tour de France arrival at Alpe d'Huez, the roads will be closed to traffic early in the morning (some time around 11 am). Also public transportation could be unavailable on July 14th, for the same reason.
