Description

The south side of the Col de la Colombière pass is a lot easier then its counterpart. The main reason for this is that when you start to climb in Le Grand Bornand, you"re already on 923 meters height. That only leaves you 690 heightmeters up. Not much more than for a Vosges climb. A good training for the other side of the passway. Only the last kilometers may force you out of your sadlle, with 7-9%.
