Definitely recommended. Also, take this route instead of the others, as you will ride the first 10km on a cycle path and a quiet D-road in fine condition right through the forest. Then you join the main road towards the l'Iseran. Much busier in terms of traffic, but slowly the views get nicer. You leave this week to meander quite steeply up to Tignes after a bit of flat. At the top, you are treated to stunning views over the reservoir. Then it's another 4.5km to the lake of Tignes itself. A, even in summer, busy ski village. Good place for a short break.

Zeker een aanrader. Neem ook deze route in plaats van de anderen, want dan rijd je de eerste 10km over een fietspad en een rustige D-weg in prima staat dwars door het bos. Daarna voeg je je op de hoofdweg richting de l'Iseran. Veel drukker qua verkeer, maar langzaam wordt het uitzicht mooier. Je verlaat deze week om na een stukje vlak vrij steil omhoog naar Tignes te kronkelen. Boven word je getrakteerd op een prachtig uitzicht over het stuwmeer. Dan is het nog 4,5km naar het meer van Tignes zelf. Een, ook in de zomer, druk skidorp. Goede plek voor een korte pauze.
