베르소넥스‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪5‬개의 산길

Perched at an altitude of 1,323 metres, the Col de la Faucille welcomes you with a 360-degree panorama of the Alps and the Valserine Valley. Whether you attack it from the north or the south, the spectacle is not long in coming. Its ascent from the south, on the road to Gex, has the appearance of a great Alpine pass with its many bends and countless views of the Mont-Blanc massif.

A superb section of road that switchbacks its way up/down through rocky surroundings. Usually a quieter section of road, but it can get busy in July and August.

A Sunday in July, not too much traffic, but the cars and motorcycles go fast. Arriving at the top, a fire engine rushes past me, I discover a cyclist lying on the side, his bike tumbling... The view is beautiful at the top, but doesn't really offer a viewpoint, and the climb is blocked by the forest. The descent towards the lake however is nice.

Very beautiful panoramic view

9 km at an average gradient of 9.5%. Rated as "unclassified" on the myCols app. Small, shaded road with almost no traffic. Asphalt in good condition.

A wonder. Make the descent by Mijoux because the bitumen of the Vattay road is really bad.

The Col de la Faucille from Gex is 11.8 km long with a total drop of 703 m. The average gradient is 5.96% with maximum gradients of 8.1%. It is part of the Massif du Jura.

A relatively short climb (5km) with gentle inclines at the start, ending in a steeper section near the summit. The descent on the other side gives you a beautiful view of the lake below.
