Signed walking trail

The itinerary begins with a bit of plain pedaling from Mont Cenis Pass on a track which, fortunately, offers magnficent views! You can make it more interesting by taking the red variant. If, on the other hand, you depart from Termignon ski lifts, then no effort is required at all. At the Replat des Canons (when you reach the chairlift) you'll begin on a highly amusing section, before a gentle ride to Termignon along an easy track. Here again, you can opt for the red variant if you're still not satisfied!
The name comes from a local speciality - have you tried Termignon blue cheese?

Departs from: Mont Cenis Pass, Val Cenis Lanslevillard, or Val Cenis Termignon.

    To reach the Col du Mont Cenis by ski lift:

    - Val Cenis Termignon on Thursdays. You will have to cross on a track of about 5 km in the direction of the Col du Mont Cenis; this adds 160 m of D- and 70 of D+. You will arrive at the farm with blue shutters, so it will be on the left in the meadow, before the road.
    During the summer season, you can take the S53 bus (Modane - Bonneval/Arc) and get off at the "Télécabine du Vieux Moulin" stop for Lanslevillard and "Maison de la Vanoise / Mairie" for Termignon; the bus is equipped with a bicycle trailer every day except Saturday.
