Description
This route will allow you to discover or rediscover the Aravis massif, its mountain pastures and its climbs... this tour will remain serious with the little-known col des Annes, but the incredible view from the summit will almost make you forget the ache in your legs!

* Tricky sections:
The first little difficulty of the week to get you started is the Col des Aravis from the village of La Giettaz, which is 6km long and has a relatively even gradient that can still reach 8% in places.
The second difficulty, the Col des Annes, is an often overlooked climb. The first 5km will give you a chance to warm up.
From the hamlet of Les Plans onwards, there are 6.8 km with an average gradient of 9.5%, including 500 m at 12.5%.
The return journey via the other side of the Aravis mountains will be a mere formality.
