생 빈센트 드 메르쿠즈 주변 최고의 그래블 라이딩 코스

이 마을을 정말 좋아합니다. Saint-Même 서커스로 가는 하이킹을 시작하기에 이상적인 장소입니다.

quiet route, away from the main road

strange monument erected in honor of Mr. Ernest Doudart, who distinguished himself in Indochina

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.

Cute little town with all amenities

Gravel section with 40mm tires. (Caracal Hutchinson) In a very dry period (end of June), nothing to complain about in the St Hilaire/Col de Marcieu direction.

Conditionally recommended: Definitely recommended on a mountain bike. Relatively bumpy on a gravel bike. But doable with 45-inch tires and 2.5 bar pressure. There are few views along the trail, however, as it leads through dense forest.
