Very nice climb with a magnificent view all along on the Lac du Bourget. Past the pass, take the road to the right to climb to the Belvedere (be careful, it climbs steeply). Superb 360° panorama at the top over Lake Bourget, the Grand Colombier and the Aravis range. Only downside: a little traffic on the way up, so be careful on the way down.

Superb views on the way up from the side of the lake. To be done outside the summer season to avoid traffic.
A water point at the level of the pass.
