This is a small town from where you can go to various gorges, but there is no gorge here yet, so there are no photos of gorges.

Anstieg von Bouvante

Highlight (Segment) • Other

Small road, lots of bends, little traffic, water point available. First just to the Col de La Croix, then on to the Col de Pionnier.

The climb is particularly appreciated for its tranquility, low vehicular traffic, and the beauty of the surrounding rural landscape, characterized by Clairette de Die vineyards in the lower part and forests typical of the French pre-Apennines.
