Quieter than the Aravis, with a superb, sinuous descent.
Direction of travel: clockwise.
Landmarks and connections : Annecy-le-Vieux; Alex (separation with Tour du mont Veyrier n°2); Thônes (separation with Tour de la Tournette n°3); St-Jean-de-Sixt (separation with Tour du Bargy n°44 and Tour des Glières n°45); La Clusaz (separation with Traversée Aravis / Arly n°47)
Description:Did you like the Tour de la Tournette? Then you'll love the Circuit de la Croix-Fry! In fact, to the charms of the first (with a not-to-be-missed break in the heart of Thônes) are added the passage through La Clusaz (second obligatory break!) with its majestic panoramic view of the Aravis range, and then the beautiful south-westerly descent of the Col de la Croix-Fry. If you'd like a more athletic version of this tour, you can simply reverse the ascent to the pass from Thônes, taking it in an anti-clockwise direction, when things get more serious: 850 m of ascent over 13 km, including 7 km above 7%, with 1 km at 9.2%. Laurent Jalabert and Lance Armstrong came out on top here in 97 and 2004 respectively. Best done in the morning, before the sun goes down!
