My first real climb!
The climb from l'Orgère takes you through the small village of Saint-André, before heading into the Vanoise National Park. The route is not overly busy, as it only gives access to the refuge.
The gradients are never too steep, and there is a little resting place in the woods where you can catch your breath. A good climb that's well worth the diversions on a good outing with plenty of climbs!

Ma première véritable montée !
La montée de l'Orgère vous fait traverser le petit village de Saint-André, avant de s'enfoncer dans le parc national de la Vanoise. La route n'est pas trop fréquentée puisqu'elle permet d'accéder uniquement au refuge.
Les pourcentages ne sont jamais trop élevés, et un petit replat dans les bois vous permet de reprendre votre souffle. Une bonne ascension qui vaut le détour au cours d'une bonne sortie riche en montées !

I combined this climb with the one at the other end of the valley, Valfréjus. It ends at a restaurant, from where you can hike further and probably mountain bike too.

Very good climb for a training session: the big percentages follow one another but the climb only lasts about 10 km so we leave our comfort zone but gently!

Très bonne ascension pour un entraînement : les gros pourcentages se succèdent mais l'ascension ne dure environ que 10 bornes donc on sort de notre zone de confort mais en douceur !
