    Road cycling

    Perched at an altitude of 1,323 metres, the Col de la Faucille welcomes you with a 360-degree panorama of the Alps and the Valserine Valley.
    Whether you attack it from the north or the south, the spectacle is not long in coming. Its ascent from the south, on the road to Gex, has the appearance of a great Alpine pass with its many bends and countless views of the Mont-Blanc massif.

    A relatively short climb (5km) with gentle inclines at the start, ending in a steeper section near the summit. The descent on the other side gives you a beautiful view of the lake below.
