Cycling loop - From Lac de Chevelu to Mont Tournier

Ride in a majestic setting of lakes, lush green landscapes and breathtaking views of Mont du Chat.

From the Maison du Lac, climb towards Nances, where you'll head due north to the foot of the fearsome Relais du Mont du Chat. Don't panic: your route will take you in the more "rolling" direction of Lac de Chevelu. In splendid surroundings, you'll reach Yenne before tackling the most difficult part of the route: Mont Tournier. 10.5 km at 5.5% average gradient. A little-frequented pass with a wooded summit at 820 m altitude. You then descend from Sainte Marie d'Alvey to the foot of the Col de la Crusille (2 km at 6%). The final descent takes you back to the shores of Lac d'Aiguebelette.
