20의 에이프레몬트가지 명소 & 주요 장소

A 10 km climb from the small roundabout in Châtillon, it's more like 14 km from the Nantua road or the center of Bellegarde. The gradient is fairly steady, ranging from 5.5% to 7.2%, with about ten small steep sections at +8.5%. Very quiet, with very few cars. The road is generally in good condition, but nothing more. There are some beautiful views along the way.

This glacial lake, backed by limestone cliffs, is sometimes sapphire in color, sometimes emerald - Alexandre Dumas wrote in his book Impression de voyage in 1834: "This pretty little sapphire blue lake, set like a jewel, that nature would fear to lose."

The Col de Bérentin connects the Valserine Valley to the Retord Plateau, passing through the beautiful Jura forests. Its ascent is gradual and the road is little traveled.

Second pass for today. Pass elevation 1144 m above sea level. Long climb, basically from Saint Germain to here. A total of about 700 m elevation gain and 12 km. The gradient is only 4-6%, but with 20 kg of luggage, everything is difficult ;) Here, too, the weather was still quite cool in very early April. Partly rain, partly windy.

Rest after a 12 km climb from Saint-Germain-de-Joux.
