Two short, fairly rolling passes to kick off the week: Croix Fry and Marais. You can then enjoy the peace and quiet of the country route to Les Rippes, lined with fruit trees. You will then complete the route via Héry to Ugine.
You will be accompanied by instructors who hold the BE cycling certificate. Assistance and follow car will be on the program.
Meeting at 8.15 am, for a departure at 8.30 am.

* Difficult sections :
No major difficulties on this route.
Ascent of the Col de la Croix Fry, on the La Clusaz side, with no steep sections but a final stretch of more than 3.5 km at 7-8% (with a small, life-saving flat at the end of a long hairpin bend).
Then on to the Col du Marais, a 6.8-kilometre climb with a positive difference in altitude of 220 metres. The average gradient is 3.2%, so it's still a very easy pass.
