    Les Lacets de Montvernier is a highest point in the French Alps. It's a short climb of only 2.32 kilometers long with 287 meters of drop. The average slope is 8.1%.

    It has been used several times during the Tour de France and is famous for its tight hairpins.

    One of the highlights of the French Alps. With a length of just four kilometers and an altitude difference of 350 metres, this gem has a whopping 18 hairpin bends. A must for every lover of winding, slow and promising driving. Tip: Just don't lean on the shaky railing. That is there only pro formaaaaaaaaaaa….

    The Lacets de Montvernier are for me one of the highlights with the bike at all. Since I saw her, I wanted to come here. Unfortunately, when you drive them, you do not see much of their fascination and it's really hard to capture them in a photo. Definitely an absolute must. Definitely plan!
