From Moutiers the climb to La Sauce follows the busy road to Les Menuires and Val-Thorens.
So departure center of Moutiers Alt480M direction Menuires, Val-Thorens, beginning of a first ramp of 11,6km of a sustained slope between 5 and 7% until St jean de Belleville Alt1150M where we leave the road which goes up to the stations.
Enter the village ( numerous fountains of fresh drinking water ) then follow the indications, La Sauce, le Villard, it remains then 7kms between 7 and 10% ( 1km of recovery lower than 5% after le Villard )
Many twists and turns, very tight at the start of St Jean de Belleville and during a good part of the climb, however the end is straight ahead for about 1.5km in a steep slope.
La Sauce Alt1610M, Car park, start of the hike, stone houses.
Have a good trip and be careful on the way down.

Au départ de Moutiers la montée à La Sauce empreinte en partie la route très fréquentée des Menuires et deVal-Thorens.
Donc départ centre de Moutiers Alt480M direction les Menuires, Val-Thorens, début d'une première rampe de 11,6km d'une pente soutenue entre 5 et 7% jusqu'à St jean de Belleville Alt1150M où l'on laisse la route qui monte aux stations.
Entrer dans le village ( nombreuses fontaines d'eau potable et fraîche ) puis suivre les indications, La Sauce, le Villard, il reste alors 7kms entre 7 et 10% ( 1km de récupération inférieure à 5% après le Villard )
Nombreux lacets, très serrés au départ de St Jean de Belleville et pendant une bonne partie de l'ascension, par contre la fin c'est droit devant pendant environ 1,5km dans une forte pente.
La Sauce Alt1610M, Parking, départ de randonnée, maisons en pierres.
Bonne route et soyez prudents dans la descente.
