Hard road ride. Very good fitness required. Mostly well-paved surfaces and easy to ride. The starting point of the route is right next to a parking lot.

Beautiful little cornice road, with a beautiful view of the Bourg d'Oisans plain. A nice alternative to the climb of the Alpes d'Huez. Go up to Villard Reculaz, the road joins the rise of the Alps at Huez.
