About This Route
The highest paved road in the Alps: the D902 climbs from Bourg-Saint-Maurice past the Tignes dam and Val d'Isère to the 2,764 m Col de l'Iseran, between snow and glaciers. The descent to Bonneval-sur-Arc, one of the prettiest villages in France, is narrow and has no barriers. Open from June to October only.
