I didn't have a very good time on this pass, even though it's very handy for getting back to Thiers. The road is a long straight line, the few bends at the end are in the very steep part. The closer you get to the pass, the higher the road gets. There is some traffic and few views as the road is quite enclosed. I'd recommend passing it if it's convenient for your itinerary, but you won't miss anything if you avoid it.
Je n'ai pas passé un très bon moment dans ce col, même s'il est bien pratique pour revenir vers Thiers. La route est une longue ligne droite, les quelques virages à la fin sont situés dans la partie très raide. Plus vous approchez du col, plus la route s'élève. Il y a un peu de circulation et peu de points de vue car la route est assez enclavée. Je recommande d'y passer si cela est pratique pour votre itinéraire, mais vous ne raterez rien en l'évitant.
