This route has a wonderful start 24 Km of almost complete downhill west along the D1091 to Sechillienne. This leads in to the climb of the Col de la Morte, which winds it's way for 16 Km at a lovely gradient to the ski resort of Le Alpe du Grand Serre. Descent is made to La Basse Valette followed by a short climb affording views of some of the amazing peaks of the Ecrin. Descending again the route picks up the D26 for the long run in to the Col d'Ornon. Some 25 Km later the col is reached, where a fantastic 15 Km switchback descent begins ending up on the main D1091 again for the final 2 Km back to Le Bourg d'Oisans
