Found in an epicentre of cycling royalty (Alpe d’Huez, Col du Glandon, Col Du Madeleine, Lacets de Montvernier all nearby) and the French alps Croix De Fer links Le Bourg-d’Oisans and Saint-Jean-de-Maurienne.
From Barrage Verney or Lac Allemand, the route is a rollercoaster with some steep sections approaching 10%. Past the turn for Col Sabot, the first 10km are firmly uphill before a brief descent thanks to some expertly formed and dramatic switchbacks/hairpin bends. Up towards Barrage de Grand Maison (super impressive structure) before again a slight respite along Lac de Grand Maison before the gradient kicks up again. You will see the disused hotel Glandon and the sign for Col du Glandon. If you can it’s worth deviating and descending down the first 5km of this legendary pass. It is stunning. From the Col du Glandon turnoff it’s an almost straight shot towards Croix De Fer itself. Enjoy every last second of it as you marvel at the beauty of the surroundings. Time for a coffee at the Cafe at the top
Fantastically pretty road and surroundings. Col du Glandon is a must also.
