The mythical Alpe d'Huez, a ski resort in winter, turns into a mecca for cycling in summer. It is one of the most famous climbs of the Tour de France with its 21 bends. There are several ways to climb to the station, either from Bourg d'Oisans, or by the Pas de la Confession, or from behind with the Col de Sarenne.

Bend 7 is for connoisseurs

If not on the way up, then you should definitely make a stop down the valley. In the bend there is a small forest with two benches. Both benches invite you to look and relax. My pictures give a little idea.
