Alpine pass Col de l'Izoard – from the perspective of Col de la Platrière

The south side of Briançon's ‘local mountain’, the Col de l'Izoard alpine pass – seen from the Col de la Platrière alpine pass, which lies slightly below and is completely unknown to most alpine pass drivers.

On this section, the road has no barriers on either side.
The Col de la Platrière is located just a few kilometres below the summit of the Col de l'Izoard, on a bend. Here, the descent rises slightly before continuing downhill. In the bend, there is a small car park with an even smaller viewing platform.

Both alpine passes are part of the Alpen-Marathon ‘7 days | 6 countries | 50 passes’, which has been held since 2022. For self-drivers, there is our Challenge, new in book form or tried and tested as a PDF.

Of course, the stickers for the tour stages and the certificate are always included.

And for those who want to enjoy ‘all-round service’, entertainment and lots of knowledge, Harry's Bike Tours naturally offers the complete tour on several dates throughout the year.
