Done on 21 September 2022.
The first 10 km and especially the first part are boring, on a wide road with a good to average tarmac, because in places it is degraded by the harshness of the winter and the vehicles that go up to the stations, the road is lined with trees and there are few gaps for views, otherwise the traffic is very quiet and it is pleasant.
After the notches, the view opens up, the road becomes narrow and very bad, the slope becomes steeper but still it is less boring, about 5 to 6 km to go.
I continued a little bit after the hamlet of Bauches as the road allows it until a small parking with a view on the glacier of Plagne Bellecote.
Overall a nice climb with a significant difference in altitude, a little monotonous in the first 10 km, but then despite the degraded tarmac it becomes grandiose.
Be careful in hot weather as it is in the sun.
Fait le 21 septembre 2022.
Les 10 premiers kilomètres et surtout l'entame on s'ennuie, sur une route large avec un bitume bon à moyen car par endroits dégradé par les rudesses de l'hiver et les véhicules qui montent aux stations, la route est bordée d'arbres et les trouées permettant des points de vues sont peu nombreuses, sinon la circulation est très calme et c'est agréable.
Après les coches, la vue se dégage, la route devient étroite et très mauvaise, la pente devient plus forte mais malgré tout c'est moins ennuyeux, il reste environ 5 à 6 km.
J'ai continué un peu après le hameau des Bauches car la route le permet jusqu'à un petit parking avec vue sur le glacier de Plagne Bellecote en face et derrière vous le sommet du Mont Blanc si le ciel est dégagé.
Dans l'ensemble une belle ascension avec un dénivelé conséquent, un peu monotone dans les 10 premiers km, mais ensuite malgré que un bitume dégradé ça devient grandiose.
Attention par grosse chaleur car c'est en plein soleil.
