Nice little winding road (D909) from Col des Aravis.
If the weather cooperates, great views.

Col des Aravis

Highlight • Mountain Pass

This pass, perched at an altitude of 1,487 meters (4,878 feet), connects the departments of Haute-Savoie and Savoie as well as the two ski resorts of La Clusaz and La Giettaz. Very popular with cyclists, be careful on the descent towards Giettaz: there is a tunnel with a bend. Turn on your lights!
