The climb from Thoiry is not very steep but it is irregular, with occasional flats and even slight descents and one that is steeper.

The views are often very pleasant, both over the countryside and the peaks of the Bauges, including Mont Margériaz, the Croix du Nivolet and the Pointe de la Galoppaz.

The climb from Thoiry is not very steep but it is irregular, with occasional flats and even slight descents and one that is steeper. As a result, the percentage is sometimes higher, but only for short distances. The road is very quiet and of fairly good quality. The views are often very pleasant, both over the countryside and the peaks of the Bauges, including Mont Margériaz, the Croix du Nivolet and the Pointe de la Galoppaz. At the pass, the view stretches from the Lauzière range to the northern Belledonne. This climb can be added to one of the many others in the area to complete an outing.

La montée depuis Thoiry est peu pentue mais irrégulière, avec parfois des replats voir des légères descentes et une plus conséquente. Ainsi le pourcentage est parfois plus important mais sur de courtes distance. La route est très calme et de qualité plutôt correcte. La vue est souvent très agréable, aussi bien sur la campagne que sur les sommets des Bauges, dont le Mont Margériaz, la Croix du Nivolet ou encore la Pointe de la Galoppaz. Au col la vue s'étend de la chaîne de la Lauzière au Nord de Belledonne. Cette montée peut s'ajouter à une des nombreuses autres dans les environs pour compléter une sortie.
