A pretty little pass! The climb begins with gentle gradients and the road is bordered on the right by a small stream and its waterfalls. It's only after the first 3-4 kilometres that things get tougher, the ％ increase and the quality of the tarmac deteriorates, eventually turning into a gravel road on the last kilometre. After this experience I wouldn't recommend tackling this final section with a road bike. It's much better suited to gravel or mountain bikes.
Joli petit col ! La montée commence avec des pente douce et la route est bordée sur la droite par un petit ruisseau et ses cascades. Ce n'est qu'après les 3-4 premiers kilomètres que les choses se corsent, les ％ augmentent et la qualité du bitume se dégrade pour au final se transformer en un chemin de graviers sur le dernier kilomètre. Après cette expérience je déconseille de s'attaquer à cette dernière partie avec un vélo de route. Elle est bien plus adapté au gravel ou au VTT.
