Road cycling route : Tour du lac du Bourget

Starting from Culoz, reach the lake shores following the cyclepath ViaRhôna to Chanaz. It is recommended to cycle around the lake clockwise to have a better view.
This lake tour is not easy as it seems as there is a 2nd categorie climb starting from Le Bourget du Lac. The col du Chat is 7 km long and has total elevation of 368 m.
(It is possible to cycle under the mountain and avoid the climb through a tunnel built for cyclists and pedestrians only).
