A legendary pass in the Tour de France, located at an altitude of 2,642 meters, it has been the highlight of many editions. Starting from Saint-Michel-de-Maurienne and including the preliminary climb to the Col du Télégraphe, it is a 35-kilometer climb. More than just a climb, it is a true journey for cycling fans.
