Beautiful climb to on an idyllic mountain lake. This climb is perfect as an alternative to the busy road towards Grand St-Bernhard Pass.

Prachtige klim naar op een idyllisch bergmeer. Deze klim kan je perfect gebruiken als alternatief voor de drukke weg richting Grand St-Bernhardpas.

Very steep, so a little resistance is definitely a plus. The town of Champex is a very nice reward with a beautiful lake. The road is relatively quiet of traffic and often runs between trees. Nice.

Zeer steil, een klein verzetje is dus zeker een pluspunt. Het stadje Champex is een heel toffe beloning met een mooi meer. De weg is relatief rustig van verkeer en loopt vaak tussen de bomen. Leuk.
