Road Cycling Highlight (Segment)
Recommended by 17 road cyclists
Long but gentle and pedaling climb that completely crosses the Chisone valley. The most demanding sections (never above 10%) are those from Fenestrelle to Usseaux and from Pragelato to Sestriere.

On the way there are many fountains for the hot days. If Sestriere is in sight you still have to fight a good 4km.

This climb to Sestriere follows the same route used by the Giro d’Italia for its individual time trial in 1992, which was won by Miguel Indurain.
