Road name: Route des Balcons

This is an automatic translation, the original language is: French.
Unlike its namesake in the Oisans, this is a small pass (and a must) if you are travelling the whole of the Balcon de Belledonne. It can also be reached from much lower down, from Brignoud in the Grésivaudan valley, via Laval, but cyclists leaving from the valley generally prefer to turn off towards the Col des Mouilles, a little higher up. Near the pass is a memorial to the Compagnie Stéphane, a group of resistance fighters who were very active during the Second World War.... read more

Unlike its namesake in the Oisans, this is a small pass (and a must) if you are travelling the whole of the Balcon de Belledonne.

It can also be reached from much lower down, from Brignoud in the Grésivaudan valley, via Laval, but cyclists leaving from the valley generally prefer to turn off towards the Col des Mouilles, a little higher up.

Near the pass is a memorial to the Compagnie Stéphane, a group of resistance fighters who were very active during the Second World War.

Contrairement à son homonyme de l'Oisans, c'est un petit col (et un passage obligé) quand on parcourt l'intégralité du Balcon de Belledonne.

On peut choisir également d'y accéder à partir de bien plus bas, en partant de Brignoud, dans la vallée du Grésivaudan, et en passant par Laval, mais en général les cyclistes partant de la vallée préfèrent obliquer vers le col des Mouilles, un peu plus haut en altitude.

À proximité du col se trouve un mémorial en l'honneur de la compagnie Stéphane, un groupe de résistants très actifs lors de la seconde guère mondiale.
