Narrow road by the rock, great views.

This stretch of road is already well above the town of Montvernier, where a vertical strip of rock seems to block any type of access. at this point the road is dug into the solid rock, on one side it offers an impressive abyss that stops in the clearing where the town stands, on the opposite side it escapes upwards, but it is better not to look too much and force on the pedals, because the he entire wall is subject to falling stones and there is not much protection!

The views and the cliff are spectacular. It is a hard area of the port that is made more pleasant by the views of the valley and the mountains.
