Driving the Little St Bernrd Pass - any vehicle restictions?

[GeeCee]

Thinking of driving from Aix Les Bains into Italy and I understand this pass is very picturesque. Motorhome is 2.38 metres wide and 7.8 metres long plus a a bike rack with two bikes on it, making it more like 8.5 metres. Are there any length or width restrictions that would prevent me from doing this?

Length and width no but it’s chuffing steep and narrow. Jolly nice view though.

When you going, snow will be here soon.

You would have no problem. I have ridden my bike over it and it's not that steep and the road is wide.

Had no issues in car and it looked perfectly do-able, but it is steep. The high spot was having a snowball fight with my late mother at the top….. and it was the end of June!

The bonus is the drive down the Aosta valley

No issues with it, however do look out for some of the 'locals' who appear to like dressing up ...

Coming home through Switzerland?

I wondered what the consensus is for doing Nice to Calais through switzerland? Via Aosta and Turin. We met some swiss campers who said the roads are always kept free of snow and as we had come up to Lemone Piemonte to ski it woyld make sens to hold this route. What di you seasoned...

It should be clear for a few weeks yet so no issues. Might just be foggy though as it’s getting to that time of year.

That is the Grand St Bernard Pass from Martingy in to Aosta in
The OP was asking about the PETITE St Bernard Pass Between Courmayeur / La Thuile in to Bourg St Maurice in

Ive ridden my bike over it in early September. It snowed at the top
Iirc, the French side is okay, the Italian side at the top was steep and narrow and tight hairpins iirc
