Tamié petites routes - Itinéraire cyclo
Description
Climb at your own pace up to the Col de Tamié on minor roads and secret routes. Discover the landscapes of this beautiful valley in the Massif des Bauges, its heritage and history, well off the beaten trail.
The peaceful Tamié valley is home to an abbey where Trappist monks produce a famous cheese. At the pass, the Fort de Tamié stands in a strategic position overlooking the Isère valley. On the descent, don't miss the Caves and Waterfalls at Seythenex.
