Opt for an electric bike for an effortless sightseeing tour through the Tarentaise Vanoise valleys. Along quiet, easygoing, waymarked trails, the most beautiful scenery and delights of our region will open up before you.
This original route takes you through two very different settings: the first crossing the mountain pastures of Courchevel, the second, more wild, set within a secret valley at the edge of Vanoise National Park. Start by heading to Col de la Platta (altitude of 2,408m) along a pretty track through mountain pastures. Then pass over to the wild side, dotted with flatter areas perfect for picnics, along a narrow track, with a handful of typical farmhouses gracing the scenery as you go.
