루피 주변 최고의 그래블 라이딩 코스

This is the "true summit," a little higher than the Col de Richemond. A sign indicates the Porte du Valromey. The start of the sublime "Corniche du Valromey" is also located here!

A few small shops, a nice stopover

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.

Water point and shoe brushes

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.

Best done in the morning in case of extreme heat!

Unfortunately I was unlucky with the weather, but even as I drove past the place looked very nice, lots of grass and a place to swim.
