The first two thirds present no difficulty, the last three are between 6 and 7％, very regular, so no real big difficulty. Very quiet, well-surfaced road with splendid scenery over the valley floor and the puy Violent, all set amidst burons and herds of Salers cattle. A must!... read more

Les deux premiers tiers ne présentent aucune difficulté, les trois derniers sont entre 6 et 7％, très réguliers, donc pas vraiment de grosse difficulté. Route très calme bien bitumée avec des paysages splendides sur le font de vallée et le puy Violent, le tout au milieu des burons et des troupeaux de Salers. À faire !

The most complete of the three sides of this pass! Villages, a variety of slopes, hairpin bends and a pastoral environment make this one of the most enjoyable climbs in the region!

Le plus complet des trois versants de ce col ! Villages, variétés de pentes, virages en épingles et environnement pastoral en font une des ascensions les plus sympa de la région !

The first part is fairly flat, climbing slowly through a nice valley with views of the much higher road that leads directly to the Col de Neronne from Salers. The second part is 7％ average, climbing like a real alpine col, with nice curves and nice views. So more "real" climbing than from Salers.

Het eerste deel is vrij vlak en stijgt langzaam door een mooi dal met uitzicht op de veel hoger gelegen weg die vanuit Salers direct naar de Col de Neronne loopt. Het tweede deel is gemiddeld 7％, en klimt als een echte alpencol, met mooie bochten en een mooi uitzicht. Meer "echt" klimwerk dus dan vanuit Salers.
