A beautiful, quiet, gentle road leads to a large, touching ruined building opposite the René Vietto memorial, a local cycling icon from the 1930s.
It's a wonderful finish.
Along the way, a former military bunker.
An impressive sight. Opposite, a small virgin.
Very little traffic. Many sections of the road are new. Everything is soothing on this very pleasant pass.
Yes, a must-do.

Une belle route calme et douce qui conduit à une grande et touchante bâtisse en ruine qui fait face au mémorial René Vietto, gloire locale du cyclisme des années 30.
Elle est formidable cette arrivée.
Sur le chemin, un ancien bunker militaire.
Impressionnant. En face, une petite vierge.
Très peu de circulation. De nombreux tronçons de la route sont neufs. Tout est apaisant sur ce col très agréable.
Oui, à faire.

Easy pass but still cool to do, especially with the hairpins that follow each other at the level of Saint Jean and we enjoy a beautiful view too!

Col facile mais assez cool à faire tout de même notamment avec les épingles qui s'enchaînent au niveau de Saint Jean et on profite d'une belle vue en plus !
