シャパレイヤンの峠・トップ11

シャンベリからのまともな登り、シャルトルーズの美しい景色。

シャルトルーズ山脈の小さな峠、美しい景色と比較的静かな道。

The cross of the Aulp du seuil is located at 1825m above the cirque and marks the entrance to the high plateaus.

Warning: This section is very technical for about fifteen meters. There are metal ladders, bars, and lifelines. Experience in climbing or via ferrata is required for safety. Personally, there were three of us with rucksacks weighing 10, 12, and 15 kilos respectively, and we had to make three round trips, carrying each bag together (one holding it from above, the other from below). With a fair amount of experience, this was accomplished without any problems, but we had to take our time and reassure one of us, for whom the section was particularly technical. We did it downhill and in very light rain, which didn't help. It took us about 20/30 minutes for our three return trips. Very technical descent, probably easier ascent. → Photos for illustration purposes only, not contractual.

Warning: The climb from the east side is extremely steep! An average gradient of around 10% over 9-10 km.

From Saint Laurent du Pont, a demanding 14km climb, with many sections at over 10%. It is divided into three parts: 9km of irregular ascent (6 to 11.5% /100m) to the junction for the Chartreuse Monastery. Then 2km of flat terrain to the foot of St Pierre de Chartreuse and finally a very steep climb (several sections at +12% /100m) to the Col de Cucheron. A pass not to be underestimated! 25 degrees at St Laurent = 15 degrees at the top of the pass and its very shaded slopes. Dress accordingly.

Very nice to do

Very good and quite accessible as a pass. Be careful of overtaking cars.
