The approach to this small sub-Vosges pass is via undulating country roads. The profile's starting point is rather arbitrary, since in reality there are two short slopes to climb and then two false flats. It's not until the last kilometre after the junction between the D65 and the D77 that you get the impression of climbing a pass. From there, on a perfectly tarmac road through the forest, you head up a gradient of between 9 and 11% for 500 or 600m. The end is easier. No view at th... read more

L'approche de ce petit col sous-vosgien se fait par des routes vallonnées de campagne. Le point de départ du profil est assez arbitraire, puisqu'en réalité il y a deux petites pentes courtes à monter puis deux faux-plats.
Vous n'avez l'impression de gravir un col que dans le dernier km après le croisement entre la D65 et la D77. De là, sur une route parfaitement bitumée en forêt, vous vous engagez dans une pente entre 9 et 11% pendant 500 ou 600m. La fin est plus facile.
Aucune vue au col.
