The classic Tour de France route. Three distinct sections: gentle vineyard warm-up, relentless 9-10% forest grind, then brutal exposed lunar landscape to the 1,912m summit.

Pro Tip

Start before 7am in summer. The Tommy Simpson memorial at km 16.5 marks the treeline. Carry a jacket even on warm days.
