Nice gentle climb from Faverges. Several options are available at the top of the pass. Buy the famous Tamié cheese at the Abbaye Notre Dame or head to Ugine via Marthod on pleasant small roads, otherwise join Albertville or Chambéry.

A former fortress. Today it is a leisure center with various activities. You can even drive up by car - there are ample parking spaces. Please check the opening hours in advance. It is not open every day.

A hill with a lot of traffic, better on roads that run parallel.

In the Tamié valley, at an altitude of 900 meters, this Cistercian monastery is still active. Founded in the 12th century by monks, the abbey produces a famous cheese, Tamié.

Located at an altitude of 907 meters, this pass is located in the Bauges massif, in the town of Plancherine. It separates the valley of Savoie and Albertville from the Faverges valley and Lake Annecy.
