Done on Thursday, July 29, 2021
On the first part we take one of the variants of the climb to La Toussuire.
The part in red on the map until the exit of Jarrier is complicated with passages well above the average slope ( 11 to 14 % )
Then the gradients soften until the final part which is located on a large parking lot for hikes, equipped with toilets and fresh water.
Very few shaded parts, the sun hits hard from the morning, the car traffic is moderate until the Bottières crossing and then quiet.
I wanted to go up to the end of the Sapey road, but with a road bike it's not possible because sometimes it's only a dirt road.
You will have to wait until the exit of Jarrier to enjoy beautiful landscapes, especially on the Aiguilles d'Arves and the Maurienne valley.
For the practical side: Departure from Hermillon, Rte de la cascade, Parking opposite the Town Hall along the Torrent, Drinking water basin, Toilets opposite on the other bank and especially that allows a warm-up of approximately 2Km.
Good road and prudence

Fait le jeudi 29 juillet 2021
Sur la première partie on emprunte l’une des variantes de la montée à la Toussuire.
La partie en rouge sur la carte jusqu’à la sortie de Jarrier est compliquée avec des passages bien au-dessus de la pente moyenne ( 11 à 14 % )
Ensuite les pourcentages s’adoucissent jusqu’au final qui se situe sur un grand parking de départ de randos,équipé de toilettes et eau fraîche.
Très peu de parties ombragées, le soleil cogne dur dès le matin, la circulation automobile est modérée jusqu’au croisement des Bottières et ensuite calme.
J’ai voulu monter jusqu’à la fin de la route du Sapey, mais en vélo de route ce n’est guère possible car parfois ce n’est qu’un chemin de terre.
Il faudra patienter jusqu’à la sortie de Jarrier pour bénéficier de beaux paysages, notamment sur les aiguilles d’Arves et la vallée de la Maurienne.
Pour le côté pratique : Départ de Hermillon, Rte de la cascade, Parking en face la Mairie le long du Torrent, Bassin d’eau potable, Toilettes en face sur l’autre rive et surtout cela permet un échauffement d’environ 2Km.
Bonne route et prudence
