Cycling up Col du Frêne

It's best to set off in the fresh air for this beautiful climb, and don't forget your water bottle... But this little challenge makes you want to go, so keep the pedals turning! The bends are regular and you produce a pleasant continuous effort. The sun shines on the first few hairpin bends, where you come across a few more houses. Finally, the shade of the tall trees offers welcome coolness, as the effort begins to be sustained: the higher you go, the greater the percentage of gradient! Between the last few hairpin bends, a few flat spots give you the chance to ease off the pedals and enjoy the scenery. After a final bend, you emerge from the forest canopy and the sunlight greets you at the pass. Take a breather: you've arrived in the Bauges massif! A lovely climb. And now, have you had enough, or do you want to continue into this magnificent regional nature park, ideal for exploring by bike?
