세인트 니콜라스‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪10‬개의 산길

Hill overlooking the Vertosan valley and Col Citrin

Fetita Pass 2557m

The climb winds through a majestic valley (personally my favorite), never reaching excessive gradients; it's long but pedalable, allowing you to fully enjoy the natural surroundings. Apart from the peak season, there's almost no traffic, although you might encounter a few campers, which can be annoying on the way down. If you tackle the climb during periods of the year when there aren't too many tourists, you might, like me, have pleasant encounters with ibex and chamois that have come down to road level.

A challenging and relentless climb, like a good military road, it climbs with very regular gradients that allow, once you find your rhythm, to easily reach the summit. Be careful, in summer, of traffic (use extreme caution on both sides when descending) and the southern exposure, which makes it very hot in the afternoon.

A demanding climb for trained cyclists. 10 km, 1000 m elevation gain. Also known as Col d'Arpy.

Long climb but very rideable

The climb to the Great St. Bernard Pass (2469 m) from Aosta follows the historic State Road 27 via Gignod. It is a very long climb, about 33 km, which exceeds almost 1900 meters of altitude difference. The gradient is generally constant, with an average of around 5.7%, making it challenging especially for the length and altitude reached. The pass is located on the border with Switzerland.

Hi, is the technical part feasible with front?
