로드 바이크보다 더 나은 그래블

Pass above Villard-Reymond. Be careful, turn left just before entering the village! This officially listed but little-known pass offers a breathtaking view of the 21 bends of Alpe d'Huez!!! Not to be missed!

A lake with crystalline colors.

Four tunnels in row, three are unlit and the road surface is poor, so lights are a very good idea!

Quiet little village where the tarmac climb ends and the rougher stuff starts. There is a cafe but the opening hours are varied!

One of my favourite climbs in the area. There are four short unlit tunnels 1km out of Bourg on the start of the climb and they're quite poorly surfaced, especially the final one, so it's best to do this one with a decent set of lights. Lot of people stop and turn around at the village of Villard Notre Dam when the tarmac stops but if you keep going, I think the gravel section is the best bit - it's about 2.5km long to the top and it's do-able on a road bike - and if you're lucky you might see a marmot or two, especially if you ride it in the morning. Once you start to descend it's worth a detour to the cafe in Villard Reymond - the L'Eau Blanche.

This path used to go along the valley all the way to Venosc but the upper section was washed away in a mudslide in 2024, so now it's an out and back, but still worth it. The path ends very abruptly where the tarmac stops and the river whooshes by. Take the little detour off the path to visit the beautiful Lac de Buclet - the reflections of the mountains in the water are picture postcard pretty.
