Stories, information and comments from Col des Saisies climbers

Story by tim from Flumet, France, submitted on 05/04/2010

The col des Saisies from Flumet starts easily with around 10 tied turns just above the village, often used in Tour de France. Then you go through forests with percentage between 5 and 8% 1 km along. Still in Forest but almost flat til Notre dame de Bellecombe, bottom of the resort. ITs getting harder after with 4 km at 7-8% to reach other part of the resort. Relax on the road down 1 km and starts again with 9%, and its going down again. The last part until less saisies is harder,4km at 8%. Very irregular path, which makes it easy. Enjoy the view on Mt blanc from les saisies.
