Description

Cormet de Roselend...one of my favourite Alpine pass. It's not the highest neither the most famous, but here are two reasons why you should go there :

There is few traffic
The view on Roselend lake is definitely wonderful
Road surfacing is very good, excepted when arriving on Bourg Saint Maurice

Welle these two reasons are in fact three! Go there !
