You may want to avoid this climb altogether, even if you have done all others in the area. A few nice views, little traffic, but that’s negated by the bad road condition, at least 2/3 of the way. The GPS shows a last bit past the parking in Plan Fournier, but there’s no way you can do that on a road bike.
Well, honestly this pass is not crazy either due to a bad surface (bad road, narrow road and gullies for the rain) but it's still worth the diversions because the view from the first village is magnificent !!! Be careful on the descent because as said above, the road is very narrow and the rain gutters hurt your bike ahah
Bon, honnêtement ce col est pas non plus foufou dû à un revêtement assez qualitatif (mauvaise route, route étroite et rigoles pour la pluie) mais il vaut quand même le détour car la vue à partir du premier village est magnifique !!! Faites bien attention dans la descente car comme dit plus haut, la route est très étroite et les rigoles d'eau de pluie font bien mal à votre vélo ahah

Climb on the way down :-)
Gabe klim. Goed steil van tijd tot tijd, maar wel matig wegdek. Dat is funest voor een bange en slechte daler, zoals ik. Maar ondanks de verkrampte afdaling had ik de klim niet willen missen. Als
