Long climb where you do not have to get into trouble. Above all, keep eating and drinking. Just past the halfway point is a church with the beautiful name of Sanctuaire Notre Dame de la Vie.

This option is definitely recommended over the regular route. The first 10km deviate and the road winds nicely along the mountainside through the forest, with views and past some waterfalls.
Climb is fairly regular, only between km 3-5 it is 9-11％. Towards La Menuires, the valley opens up and you get beautiful views. Definitely do it!
Deze optie is zeker aan te raden boven de reguliere route. De eerste 10km wijken af en de weg kronkelt mooi langs de bergwand door het bos, met uitzichten en langs wat watervalletjes.
Klim is vrij regelmatig, alleen tussen km 3-5 is het 9-11％. Richting La Menuires opent de vallei en krijg je mooie vergezichten. Zeker doen!

De beklimming naar Val Thorens via Saint Laurent de la Côte vind ik mooier dan de route vanaf Moutiers. Lange klim waar je niet in de problemen hoeft te komen. Blijf vooral eten en drinken. Even over de helft ligt een kerk met de mooie naam Sanctuaire Notre Dame de la Vie. Daar vind je aan de andere kant van de weg een openbaar toilet. Indien nodig kan je daar nog snel wat water tanken. Hoe verder je komt, hoe mooier de uitzichten. Zeker de moeite waard als je in de buurt bent.
The never-ending climb to Val Thorens, you actually start at the exit to Belleville, the climb varies mainly between 5-8％ and is never really difficult, but make sure you have enough drink with you because there is no fountain for water along the way. At the top, if you ride a bit further than the image (see photo), there is a supermarket (Sherpa) where you can refill your water bottles and eat something. In short, good climb for the legs to throw loose!
De oneindige klim naar Val Thorens, beginnen doe je eigenlijk aan de afslag naar Belleville, de klim varieert vooral tussen de 5-8％ en is nooit echt lastig, maar zorg dat je voldoende drank bij hebt want onderweg is er nergens een fontein voor water. Op de top als je beetje verder rijd dan het beeld (zie foto) dan ligt er een supermarktje (sherpa) waar je je bidons kan bijvullen en wat kan eten. Kortom goede beklimming voor de benen los te gooien!
