Poutran Pass

Highlight • Mountain Pass

Hidden gem behind the hyped climb of Alpe d’Huez. Continue from the Tour de France finish towards the end of the village and find a narrow (not the best asphalt here) but stunning road. After a short climb the view over the valley on the other side is a proper reward for the climb.
