생 조제프 드 리비에르‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪12‬개의 산길

Beautiful surroundings and a wonderful place to start this (and other) hikes. Les Ateliers du Cucheron is a fantastic hotel/gite with very friendly staff. I'll definitely be back to discover more hikes.

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.

Favor the climb via Sarcenas, almost no cars

Very nice to do

Beautiful pass between St-Pierre-de-Chartreuse and St-Pierre-d'Entremont

The Col de la Charmette also known as the 'Route Forestiere de La Charmette' is a mountain road located in the Isère department, northwest of Grenoble. The road climbs up to the 'Col de la Charmette' at an altitude of 1261 metres but the road is not maintained after passing the monastery halfway along the route. If you are coming from the north after 4 km at the Buisson Ardent monastery, it is officially closed and prohibited to motor vehicles. It includes sections of gravel and broken pavement and crosses several dark tunnels. The road is very winding and narrow in places. In many places it is bordered on one side by cliffs, the other side by a drop of hundreds of metres without protection by railings, so be careful.

Pass fairly easy to access.

Very pleasant pass to climb, not too steep a slope, well marked all the way.
