This small, idyllic village invites you to take a short stop on the strenuous way up. If you want to take a break here and enjoy a little French flair, take a look at the parish church in the village. It is from the 14th century and has many facets of the Gothic architectural style.

Pretty little bucolic village at the bottom of the Grand Galibier. Either starting point or ending point depending on the option chosen for the ascent of the pass.
