The longest of the variants and also the one with the most difference in altitude as there is a slight loss of altitude after the passage of the Montessuit pass.
There are some nice views and a nice little road after Arechettaz with a tunnel cut in the rock.
If you are staying near Albertville, this climb is worth a diversion.

La plus longue de variantes et aussi celles qui a le plus de dénivelé car il y a une légère perte d'altitude après le passage du col de Montessuit .
Des jolies points de vues et une petite route sympa après Arechettaz avec le passage d'un tunnel taillé dans la roche.
Si vous venez séjourné du côté d'Albertville, cette ascension mérite un détour.
Le départ se situe à la Biolletta, direction Césarches, c'est à la sortie de la piste cyclable venant du camping d'Albertville en direction d'Ugine.
