Granier

A wonderful ride through the region around Granier, including three cols.

Corbel

I went for a wonderful ride with a co-worker to the col de Granier from St. Laurent du Pont this morning. It was some of the most beautiful scenery I had seen in the Chartreuse, so after returning, Chloe and I gathered up the rug rats and drove out there. Along the way, we stopped at a fromagerie to buy cheese and confiture


and met Simon, Vanessa and the girls at what for me was one of the highlights of the ride: Corbel. Corbel is a tiny mountain down perched above (another) breathtaking Chartreuse valley. It doesn't have much, but if does have a Café with unbeatable views.


Here is a panorama of Corbel:
