Not a particularly challenging climb, but very rewarding in its final part. The kilometers leading to the Col des Aravis after La Clusaz are paticularly beautiful
Salita non particolarmente impegnativa, ma molto remunerativa nella sua parte finale. I km che conducono al Col des Aravis dopo La Clusaz sono paticolarmente belli
A long, very pleasant climb to Saint-Jean-de-Sixt. After that, there is no more traffic until you leave La Clusaz. Beautiful views of Mont Blanc from the summit.
Longue montée, très agréable jusqu’à Saint-Jean-de-Sixt. Par la suite, plus de circulation jusqu’à la sortie de La Clusaz. Belle vue au sommet sur le Mont-Blanc.
A beautiful route, with not too steep a climb. We start with the Borne gorges, which are well worth the diversions. The last few kilometres are a fine winding section over a well-cleared pass, with the wind blowing hard and making it difficult to finish the climb.
Très belle route, avec une montée pas trop violente. On commence par les gorges du Borne qui valent le détour. Les derniers kilomètres sont de beaux lacets sur un col bien dégagé, le vent souffle bien et rend difficile la fin de l'ascension.
a beautiful climb winding gently up with a flat section, gradient rare above 8％, on excellent tarmac. fabulous views across valleys. one short tunnel. great eating options at col. lots motorbikes (unavoidable). rained all the way today (14/6/24) but it was still amazing.
