Cycling the Route des Grand Alps: The Backside of the Galibier
A 14-day bicycle trip from Annecy to Nice via the Route des Grand Alps. Somewhere in the middle one crosses the Galibier: the monster. It takes half a day to climb. But from the top, it’s 22km of pure downhill to the Baths of Monetier. Helmets please.
