The little sister of the remarkable ascent from Le Fayet, it still requires some effort to manage the climb. After taking the main road towards Megève for around 1 kilometre, turn left towards "Bettex"/"Saint Nicolas de Véroce". A lower gradient for 3 kilometres will take you to "Gollet" in the direction of Le Bettex for this final 4-kilometre section at an average gradient of 9.5%. Once at the top, take the time to look back and admire the scenery.
For the more courageous, go downhill once you've reached the "Gollet" crossroads and turn right towards Saint Nicolas de Véroce to join the other circuit, which climbs to "Plan de la croix", leaving you with 6 kilometres to climb.
