A stunning climb with dense forest hugging almost every curve, this is one to do on a hot day as an escape from Geneva. This was the second categorized climb of the 2023 Etape du Tour. As with many climbs in the Haute Savoie the lower portions of the climbs are the hardest, with gradients easing the higher one climbs. The views of the lake are great (pull over to enjoy them) but the forest is the selling point for this climb. Pace yourself well at the bottom and set into a good cadence - it's a fun ride!
