The avenue verte does the job of making those 55km fairly inconsequential. However it is the bottom of the valley and can be dead cold even in the summer. I have done it about 8 times in all seasons and it is always the case to some degree ( I had some snow in easter ). One year i took other roads on the surrounding "plateau" and it is a much better view if you don't mind riding on the dark.
