A much more difficult pass than it looks on paper! The first 4 km up to Le Chanay include a lot of steep sections and therefore many passages at 10％ and more. The view of the gorges is superb. After Le Chanay the slope is more regular and less steep, in the forest, pleasant. For those who like ramps, in Malik cut left by the "montée de la Perouse", it pulls straight and catches up with the road avoiding 3 twists.... read more

A much more difficult pass than it looks on paper!

After Le Chanay the slope is more regular and less steep, in the forest, pleasant.

For those who like ramps, in Malik cut left by the "montée de la Perouse", it pulls straight and catches up with the road avoiding 3 twists.

Col bien plus difficile qu’il n’y parait sur le papier!
Les 4 premiers km jusque Le Chanay comportent de très nombreux raidillon et donc beaucoup de passages à 10％ et plus. La vue sur les gorges est superbe.
Après Le Chanay pente plus régulière et moins forte, dans la forêt, agréable.

Pour ceux qui aiment les rampes, dans Malik couper à gauche par la « montée de la Perouse », ça tire tout droit et rattrape la route en évitant 3 lacets.
