Saint-Chaffrey is frequently crossed by the Tour de France towards Galibier and Briançon. It is several kilometers from the base of the Col du Granon, so if you want to fill up your water bottles and take a break before you start climbing, now is your best bet.

Col du Granon summit

Highlight • Mountain Pass

Get ready for the Col du Granon. This over 11 kilometer long climb is a tough Alp with an average gradient of 9.3% and the steepest 100 meters at 18%. Tour worthy, so the 11th stage of the Tour will finish on top of the Granon for the second time in 2022.

Montgenèvre Pass

Highlight • Mountain Pass

The Col de Montgenèvre connects Briançon, France, to Cesana Torinese, Italy. The pass, at 1,850 meters, is located entirely in France. The Montgenèvre pass is a historic pass: for the Romans it was the easiest road to go from Piedmont to the Durance valley.
