La Bérarde from Les Clapiers is 27.3 km long with a total drop of 964 m. The average gradient is 3.53% with maximum gradients of 11%. The climb takes you into the heart of the Ecrins massif and it is a road with little traffic. The views along the climb are breathtaking and you can even hear the sound of marmots during the summer months.

La Bérarde was almost completely destroyed by the Vénéon flood in June 2024. It is not clear whether it can be rebuilt because a similar event could possibly occur again. Access is closed to non-residents (as of September 2024).

Lovely village with a shop and a couple of restaurants/cafes to refuel after the climb up and before the beautiful, fun descent.
