A climb that takes us to some little-visited parts of Haute Savoie. The road is good, the climb easy and the kilometres go by without you seeing a thing. Well worth doing!... read more

Montée qui nous emmène dans des coins peu visités de la Haute Savoie. La route est bonne, la montée sans difficultés, les kilomètres s'enchainent sans rien voir. A faire !

An excellent climb if you want to take a shortcut towards Annecy and don't want to climb too steeply. The road is lovely and quiet and takes you through all sorts of villages. There isn't much to get along the way, so bring your own water and food. It's not the prettiest climb in the Alps, but on transit or to get to another part of the region, this climb is really quite excellent.

Een prima klim als je een doorsteek wil maken richting Annecy en je niet te steil wilt klimmen. De weg is heerlijk rustig en voert je door allerlei dorpjes. Onderweg is er niet veel te krijgen, dus neem je eigen water en eten mee. Het is niet de mooiste klim in de Alpen, maar op doorreis of om in een ander deel van de regio te komen is deze klim echt helemaal prima.
