The old D218 from Grenoble and Montaud to Autrans was destroyed and interrupted by a landslide below Buffe.
Carrying and pushing is the order of the day, which is very difficult with luggage.
From Montaud to this point, a very beautiful, winding route, but also with cars.
However, many were just looking for an ideal launch site for their paragliders.

The road is not very clean but the forest is so beautiful there!
Very little traffic obviously ...

Very pretty road, until the collapse of the cliff in winter 2020 which completely buried the road, several meters thick of rocks.

Today, it is a scree of a hundred meters wide, and although a footpath is emerging, the barrier of tangled trees on the tunnel side is very difficult to cross: you have to slip between the trunks in pushing the bike in front of you, and it's a few meters high.

In short: until the paragliders start it's great, but I only recommend access to the tunnel for the more adventurous.
