This climb is definitely doable for beginners due to the forgettable percentages. There is even a small descent in the middle. I did experience it as a somewhat larger through road with a fair amount of traffic and without very special views.

Deze klim is zeker goed te doen voor beginners door de vergefelijke percentages. In het midden zelfs een kleine afdaling. Ik ervaarde het wel als een wat grotere doorgaande weg met redelijk wat verkeer en zonder hele bijzondere uitzichten.

Partly resurfaced, the climb is regular and accessible for all levels with a flat area in the middle.

Revêtement refait à neuf en partie, la montée est régulière et accessible pour tout niveau avec sa portuon de replat en milieu.

Caution: work in Serra Val at the moment
Short walk required
Not too inconvenient during the weekend when the work stops

Passage à pieds court obligatoire

A small pass, quite long but not difficult, when I was younger I used to climb with the big plateau.
The direct road to connect Savoie to Haute Savoie at Thônes, which makes it a fairly high traffic route.
The surface is good.
For those who are on holiday and want to make an uncomplicated climb.
Good road and prudence

Un petit col assez long mais pas difficile, lorsque j'étais plus jeune je montais avec le grand plateau.
La route directe pour relier la Savoie à la Haute Savoie à Thônes, ce qui en fait un axe à circulation assez conséquente.
Le revêtement est bon.
Pour ceux qui sont en vacances et qui veulent faire une ascension pas compliquée.
Bonne route et prudence
