A variant of Mont Revard via Grésy and Montée de la Tour, this ascent is quieter and further away from the town than the ascent from Aix les Bains. Beautiful views on the first section through the countryside, then a superb panorama at the end!... read more

Beautiful views on the first section through the countryside, then a superb panorama at the end!

Variante du Mont Revard par Grésy et la Montée de la Tour, cette ascension est plus calme et à l'écart de la ville que l'ascension au départ d'Aix les Bains.
Très belles vues lors de la première partie dans la campagne puis superbe panorama à la fin !
