Ascent of the Col de Tougnète from Les Ménuires

Highlight (Segment) • Mountain Pass

The Col de Tougnète is a new challenge that was created during the summer of 2022 in the Vanoise massif in the heart of the "Three Valleys." The access road was built on the same principle as the Col de la Loze (which is a short distance away) by paving a ski slope in the Les Ménuires ski area.

Unlike the Col de la Loze, the Col de Tougnète only offers one slope. The "cycle" path is, of course, closed to motorized vehicles.

From the entrance to the Les Ménuires resort (alt. 1,732 meters), it's a "short" climb of 8.350 kilometers, offering 699 meters of elevation gain at an average of... 8.5%!

Val Thorens

Highlight • Settlement

French retort ski resort. Not really nice in summer. However, the length of the climb is quite a challenge.
