Saint Gervais to Bettex gondola top
8.4kms but ride to small village of Saint Nicholas on the way (4kms) and then after to another small village. 900meters to 1458m 558 m vertical climb
A easy day after 130kms or so yesterday. Just to climb to the top of the Saint Gervais gondola - in distance it is not so far (8.4kms) but a height gain of 558m and a small side trip to Saint Nicholas on the way (4kms) and then after to another small village after and a ‘point the nose’ navigation down small tar seal country roads (they put tar on them once only and the wear and tear of the winters slowly destroys them) - felt like I should have been on a mtn bike.
Makes for nice adventures.
Tuesday
Saint Gervais - Chamonix.
If I am going to do a circumference of Mount Blanc then I should inspect the way home. 24.1 kms by car but by bike it’s 35kms or so. With the big highway not allowed for bikes - it’s a path through le Fayet, Passy, Servoz and then up a closed road to Vaudagne, and on to Les Houches and Chamonix. A height gain of 570m. Coffee and home.
