This is a superb alternative to the Route de Briançon, quieter and with incredible views.

Quiet balcony road with amazing views across (and down) the valley - as long as you have a good head for heights! It's a good alternative to the main road up to Les Deux Alpes. The surface can be quite sktechy in places, so take care if descending on it.
