シャヴォルネイのおすすめライド

Here is the route for the ascent of the Col de la Rochette starting from Ruffieu

With this memorial, the community commemorates several victims of the Second World War. The 'camp des marais de Chautagne', where Jewish citizens were interned, was located in the Saumont district. The memorial site here—designed with the so-called 'Lorraine Cross' (a cross with two crossbars at the top) as its central element—is dedicated to courageous resistance fighters against the Nazi regime.

A very beautiful and quiet area

Best view in many directions on a quiet street

Nice climb, unfortunately the road from Ruffieu has (recently?) been completely covered in gravel that accumulates on the bends. Uphill it's okay, but risky on the descent. It's strange because the road doesn't seem particularly damaged under the gravel...

Village ideally located for the departure point of many road passes.

Monument in memory of the combatants of the Second World War in the heart of Valromey.

A pass before the final objective of the Grand Colombier, it can also be done alone for a shorter outing, but it would be a shame not to complete it! Although completing it as a single pass via the crazy climb to Virieu-le-Petit remains a real challenge and may be enough to put you off continuing!
