Superb ascent of the Bauges massif with a magnificent viewpoint as a reward at the summit. Breathtaking views of Lac du Bourget, the Bauges, Belledonne, Chartreuse, Jura and Mont Blanc in fine weather. The climb is fairly long but not too steep. It can be very busy, but remains fairly quiet out of season. The road is wide and well surfaced, with most of it exposed to the sun.

Superb ascent of the Bauges massif with a magnificent viewpoint as a reward at the summit. Breathtaking views of Lac du Bourget, the Bauges, Belledonne, Chartreuse, Jura and Mont Blanc in fine weather. The climb is fairly long but not too steep. It can be very busy, but remains fairly quiet out of season. The road is wide and well surfaced, with most of it exposed to the sun. The scenery is very pleasant all the way, as you make your way through the mountain pastures, passing through typical villages and hamlets, and some parts of the forest.

Superbe ascension du massif des Bauges avec un belvédère magnifique comme récompense au sommet. Vue imprenable sur le Lac du Bourget, les Bauges, Belledonne, la Chartreuse, le Jura et le Mont Blanc par très beau temps. La montée est assez longue mais roulante car pas trop pentue. Elle peut être très fréquentée mais reste assez calme hors saison. La route est large avec un bon revêtement, majoritairement exposée au Soleil. Le paysage traversé est très agréable tout du long, on évolue dans les alpages en traversant villages et hameaux typiques, et quelques parties en forêt.

Regular climb with the most heavy percentage until the Col de Plainpalais, after that it starts to be easier but traffic might increase a bit.

Except it is cloudy, the view on the top is worth the effort.
