moderateDriving the breathtaking road to Bellecombe is not a piece of cake
🇮🇹 Italy
# Bellecombe: A High-Alpine Adventure Craving an adrenaline rush at seriously impressive altitude? The road to Bellecombe delivers. Sitting pretty at 2,602m (8,536ft) above sea level, this peak is one of France's highest roadside destinations—and trust me, you'll *feel* that elevation. This scenic route connects Savoie in southeastern France with Italy's Aosta Valley, running as a rugged parallel neighbor to the famous Little Saint-Bernard Pass. You're basically driving straight through the heart of the Alps, just south of the mighty Mont Blanc Massif. Fair warning: this isn't your typical paved highway. The 12km (7.45 miles) of road from France's D1090 to Italy's SS26 is completely unpaved, serving primarily as an access route to the Bellecombe ski lift. You'll absolutely need a 4x4 to tackle it—this terrain doesn't mess around. The scenery? Absolutely worth it. But here's the catch: winter basically shuts this place down entirely. Once snow hits, the road becomes completely impassable. So plan your adventure for the warmer months if you want any chance of actually making the drive.
hardA memorable road trip to Strelapass
🇨🇭 Switzerland
# Strelapass: Alpine Adventure Awaits Tucked in the Prättigau/Davos district of Graubünden, Switzerland, Strelapass sits pretty at 2,352 meters (7,716 feet) above sea level—and it's absolutely worth the climb. The journey up from Davos is no joke: you're looking at 6.9 km of pure elevation gain, climbing 776 meters with an average gradient of 11.24%. The road itself is unpaved with stretches of rocky terrain, narrow enough to feel intimate with the mountain but well-trafficked by mountain bikers and hikers who know what's up. Once you crest the summit, there's a welcoming restaurant waiting to refuel you. But here's where it gets really special: beyond the restaurant, a stunning gravel path unfolds—perfect for biking, though fair warning, there are no guardrails and the route is genuinely narrow. You'll navigate through a few tunnels built to protect against landslides, which adds an extra dose of character to the experience. Just keep in mind this is a seasonal playground—the road closes come winter when the snow rolls in. And yeah, it's steep, so pace yourself. This is one of those passes that feels properly adventurous while still being accessible. Whether you're pedaling up or driving, Strelapass delivers that unmistakable Alpine reward.
hardThe Ultimate Guide to Traveling the Col de Tourniol
🇫🇷 France
# Col de Tourniol Looking for a thrilling alpine challenge in southeast France? Col de Tourniol might just be your next road trip obsession. Sitting pretty at 1,145 meters (3,756 feet) above sea level in the Drôme department of the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region, this mountain pass is pure driving poetry. The fully paved D101 is narrow and seriously steep—we're talking a maximum gradient of 9%—but that's exactly what makes it so fun. You'll navigate 15 hairpin turns on your way up, each one offering new perspectives of the surrounding landscape. The entire route stretches 15.6 km from Barbières to Léoncel, running west-southeast through some genuinely stunning terrain. This isn't just some random mountain road either. The Tour de France has featured Col de Tourniol, so you'll be driving in the literal wheel tracks of cycling legends. Whether you're a thrill-seeking driver or just someone who appreciates a good challenging climb, this pass delivers the goods—combining technical driving with rewarding scenery and serious alpine atmosphere.
hardWhere is Col de Méraillet?
🇫🇷 France
Okay, picture this: you're cruising through the French Alps, specifically in the Savoie region. You're on the D925, part of the legendary Route des Grandes Alpes, heading for the Col de Méraillet. This bad boy sits at 1,612m (5,288ft) above sea level, so get ready for some serious views! The road? All smooth asphalt, baby! Think hairpin turns and long, sweeping curves that’ll make you feel like a pro driver. The whole 39.7 km (24.66 miles) stretches from Beaufort to Bourg-Saint-Maurice. For much of it, you're winding through forests, so it's super scenic. Speaking of scenic, keep your eyes peeled for the stunning Lac de Roselend – it’s a deep blue gem with a massive dam that's seriously impressive. Word to the wise: this climb is no joke. Some sections get as steep as 13%, so be prepared for a bit of a workout for your engine. Also, while most of the road is pretty wide, there are some narrow bits where you'll want to take it slow. Oh, and did I mention this climb has been featured in the Tour de France? So you know it's legit.
