    To start with, the itinerary takes you on a peaceful ride along the shores of Lac d'Aiguebelette. There's no need to strain your pedals, and you can serenely observe the birds frolicking in the lake and the boats silently splitting the water. Now that your muscles are awake, you can tackle the gentle climb to the Col du Blanchet. At the top, pause to admire the landscape overlooking the lake: it looks so blue from up here. Are you wearing a helmet? Once over the pass, you're in for a vertiginous descent! The climb back up to Sainte-Marie will give you time to recover from your emotions. And there's no question of weakening: it's now time to climb the Col de Crusille. From here, the bike will roll almost on its own towards the lake, in a rural setting with the Chaîne de l'Epine in the background.
