A very pleasant, quiet climb, with a good surface overall. You'll be in the shade from La Table, where you'll often be in the forest as far as the pass. The route is dotted with lovely views of the Vallée des Huiles, the Chartreuse and Les Bauges. The gradient is fairly even, but never excessively steep. The 4km Col du Grand Cucheron at an average gradient of 8.5% can be extended to make the outing even more strenuous.... read more

Montée très agréable, calme, avec un revêtement dans l'ensemble bon. On est à l'ombre à partir de La Table, où l'on est souvent dans la forêt jusqu'au col. La route est parsemée de jolis point de vues aussi bien sur la vallée des Huiles, que sur la Chartreuse ou Les Bauges. La pente est plutôt régulière, jamais excessivement pentue. On peut prolonger avec le Col du Grand Cucheron et ses 4kms à 8,5% de moyenne pour corser la sortie.

Made more than 2 years ago, long ascent with sustained slopes and laces on the first part and then a long, very long straight line rather monotonous, one overhangs the valley of Gelon permanently sometimes with points of view and sometimes in the forest.

Faite il y a plus de 2ans, longue ascension avec des pentes soutenues et des lacets sur la première partie et ensuite une longue, très longue ligne droite assez monotone, on surplombe la vallée du Gelon en permanence tantôt avec des points de vue et parfois dans la foret.
