On this difficult ascent with its 7.5% average gradient, you'll be surrounded by flower-filled mountain pastures and the peaceful herds of the Vanoise National Park. On arrival at 2764m, a high mountain landscape awaits you.

Departing from the beautiful village of Bonneval-sur-Arc, classified as one of the "Most Beautiful Villages in France", you're in the "wheels" of the Tour de France as you climb one of the top 5 most challenging climbs in Savoie. You'll encounter alpine flowers, valleys and chalets, and high-mountain landscapes that get more and more mineral as you climb, with splendid views of the Haute Maurienne glaciers. The climb takes place entirely within the Parc de la Vanoise, and marmots will be your most faithful "supporters" when the gradient approaches 10%.
