When you do the beautiful Balcon de Belledonne route from Uriage, the part of this climb that goes from Theys to the Col du Barioz is the final ascent, and it usually hurts your legs for this reason. Especially if the heat is on, as there is very little shade and it can become a real furnace. So don't hesitate to refill your water bottles in Theys, if necessary. Or even better, at the Ayes pass, a little before on the Balcon road.

Quand on fait la magnifique route du Balcon de Belledonne depuis Uriage, la partie de cette montée qui va de Theys au col du Barioz est l'ascension finale, et elle fait généralement mal aux jambes pour cette raison. Surtout si la chaleur est de la partie, car elle est très peu ombragée et peut devenir une vraie fournaise. Ne pas hésiter donc à remplir les bidons à Theys, si besoin. Ou mieux encore au col des Ayes, un peu avant sur la route du Balcon.
