This is actually the first part of the 2637m col de Parpaillon. The last 8 km is better ridden with a full mtb. I took the climb while getting my "Brevet des sept cols de l' Ubaye". Quite a tough climb with some nasty sections. Pretty nice, but still desolate scenery. You get regular views of the Ubaye river in the early kilometres. But the views of the surrounding rock massifs, snow-covered or not, remain the most memorable . For the rest, there is little to see except the ski station of la Condamine, which of course has little to do in summer. I did this climb in combination with the col de Larche and the climb to Super-Sauze.
Dit is eigenlijk het eerste gedeelte van de 2637 m hoge col de Parpaillon. De laatste 8 km kan je beter met een fully mtb rijden. Ik nam de klim tijdens het behalen van mijn "Brevet des sept cols de l' Ubaye". Best wel een pittige klim met een aantal nijdige stukken. Best wel een mooie, maar toch wel desolate omgeving. Je krijgt in de beginkilometers geregeld zicht op de Ubaye rivier. Maar de vergezichten op de omringende, al dan niet besneeuwde rots massieven blijven het meest bij . Voor de rest is er weinig te zien behalve het skistation van la Condamine, waar uiteraard 's zomers weinig te beleven valt. Ik deed deze klim in combinatie met de col de Larche en de klim naar Super-Sauze.
Relatively nice landscapes but without much interest. Very bad road (under construction) and nothing at the top.
Just interesting as an alternative to the Vars pass with some nice gradients
Paysages relativement sympas mais sans beaucoup d'intérêt. Très mauvaise route (en travaux) et rien en haut.
Juste intéressant comme alternativ au col de Vars avec de beaux pourcentages
I climbed it after having conquered the Col de la Bonette and the Col de Vars. Pretty tough climb, but short!
Deze beklommen nadat ik eerst de Col de la Bonette en de Col de Vars had overwonnen. Best lastige beklimming, maar wel kort!
