A climb like so many in this region. Relatively quiet in terms of traffic, you climb via a wide road up to the ski resort. Since you can not further is nice and fast descent!

Een klim zoals er zoveel in deze regio zijn. Relatief rustig qua verkeer, je klimt via een brede weg omhoog naar het ski-oord. Aangezien je daar niet verder kunt is het lekker rap afdalen!

The climb is the same as Pipay's up to about km 12 (see comments on this last climb), but about 3 km shorter. Apart from that, the main difference is at the finish line: the ski resort of Prapoutel is much bigger and more developed (1970s style, so "factory"...) than Pipay, and also offers some activities in summer, such as mountain biking, and of course more possibilities for eating and lodging.

As a reminder, the ski resorts of Pipay, Prapoutel and le Pleynet (on the other side of the Belledonne massif) make up the Sept-Laux ski resort, the most developed of the Belledonne massif.

Montée commune à celle de Pipay jusqu'au km 12 environ (voir les commentaires sur cette dernière montée), mais de trois kilomètres plus courte à peu près. À part cela, la principale différence se trouve à l'arrivée : la station de ski de Prapoutel est beaucoup plus grande et développée (style année 70 donc « usine »…) que celle de Pipay, propose également quelques activités l'été, en VTT notamment, et bien sûr plus de possibilités de restauration et d'hébergement.

Pour rappel, les stations de ski de Pipay, Prapoutel et le Pleynet (sur l'autre versant du massif de Belledonne) constituent la grande station de ski des Sept-Laux, la plus développée du massif de Belledonne.
