Route du pas de la confession

Highlight • Other

Beautiful little cornice road, with a beautiful view of the Bourg d'Oisans plain. A nice alternative to the climb of the Alpes d'Huez. Go up to Villard Reculaz, the road joins the rise of the Alps at Huez.

One of the most beautiful viewpoints in the area.

Ideal if you are looking for a nice quiet climb with great views. This is definitely worth a short stop, beautiful with a view over the valley.
