Lovely climb if not monotonously steady, feels as though it levels off at the top more than it depicts here. Very good road conditions and infrequent traffic make for an excellent descent. At the top you'll find a wooden bench with giant metal ants attached to it. Is this art or an ant warning? Unclear. No ants were spotted but I wouldn't take my chances.

A nice steady climb with typical Jura landscapes and views. Refreshments at the summit. This climb can be part of a grand tour of the local passes (Mollendruz after the descent into the Vallée de Joux).

Une belle montée régulière avec des paysages et des vues typiques du Jura. Restauration au sommet. Cette montée peut faire partie d'un grand tour des cols du coin (Mollendruz après la descente sur la Vallée de Joux )
