It's a very pretty pass, fairly typical of this region, with still a fairly dense stretch of forest before the summit that obscures the view a little and can seem monotonous for some.
But the reward is there, at the summit, with its beautiful mountain pasture atmosphere.

C'est un très joli col, assez classique de cette région avec toujours une portion de forêt assez dense avant le sommet qui bouche un peu la vue et qui peut sembler monotone pour certains.
La récompense est là pourtant, au sommet, belle ambiance d'estive.
