The Granier pass is an emblematic pass of the Chartreuse, with a very sporty first section through St Baldophe, with beautiful views all along the ascent, very pleasant to ride, very wooded, I highly recommend it, a pass not to be missed in Savoy.... read more

In my opinion, this is the most difficult way up to the Col du Granier after the Chapareillan route.

Compared with the Chapareillan side, however, it has the advantage of being much more panoramic, and you also have the pleasure of climbing through fields and vineyards.

The road is quiet until it joins the road from Chambéry, which can be quite busy.

À mon avis c'est la façon la plus difficile de monter au col du Granier après l'accès par Chapareillan.

Par rapport au versant Chapareillan, elle a cependant l'avantage d'être bien plus panoramique, et de plus on a le plaisir de grimper au milieu de champs et des vignobles.

La route est tranquille jusqu'à ce qu'elle rejoigne celle venant de Chambéry, sur laquelle il peut y avoir pas mal de circulation.

Le col du Granier est un col emblématique de Chartreuse, avec une première portion bien sportive par st Baldophe, avec des beaux point vue tout le long de l’ascension, très agréable a rouler, très arborer, je le recommande vivement, un col incontournable de Savoie.
