Description

A great training before Col du Galibier

Often considered as merely the first part of the Galibier, the Télégraphe is an excellent climb in its own right. The road winds upwards at gradients of between 8 and 10% but, fortunately, most of the climb is in the shade.

Fort du Télégraphe

Located a short distance from the pass at an altitude of 1570 m, above a sheer drop overlooking Saint-Michel-de-Maurienne, the impressive Fort du Télégraphe owes its name to the Chappe signalling mast which was built on the site in the early 19th C.
