From Val-d'Illiez, the road is fairly quiet. You climb at a steady percentage, especially in the afternoon you regularly have some shelter. Large stretches have beautiful views of the Dents du Midi, very worthwhile. When you almost reach the turn-off towards the Col de Champoussin, you will see the ski lifts of Les Crosets. From there the wind can be a bit against you, luckily the road towards the summit flattens slightly. The village itself is not particularly pretty, but all in all a fine climb. The turn-off towards Champoussin is also recommended,
Vanaf Val-d'Illiez is de weg vrij rustig. Je klimt tegen een gestaag percentage omhoog, zeker in de middag heb je geregeld wat beschutting. Grote stukken heb je een prachtig uitzicht op de Dents du Midi, zeer de moeite waard. Als je bijna bij de afslag richting de Col de Champoussin bent, zie je de skiliften van Les Crosets. Vanaf daar kan de wind wat tegen staan, gelukt vlakt de weg naar de top toe iets af. Het dorp zelf is niet bijzonder mooi, maar al met al toch een fijne klim. De afslag richting Champoussin is ook een aanrader,
