Climbed 11 August 2021. The first part runs slightly uphill on Route de l'ancienne voie ferrée, or in other words the old railway line which is neatly paved. This road is known to be dangerous (shortcut where traffic drives too fast). Then you arrive in Callas, take the road on the right that descends somewhat and at the T junction left through the village. Again, watch out for traffic and pedestrians.

Climbed 11 August 2021. The first part runs slightly uphill on Route de l'ancienne voie ferrée, or in other words the old railway line which is neatly paved. This road is known to be dangerous (shortcut where traffic drives too fast). Then you arrive in Callas, take the road on the right that descends somewhat and at the T junction left through the village. Again, watch out for traffic and pedestrians. After the village, walk uphill to the col. No facilities except rubbish containers. Col was often used in the Tour de Haut Var (no longer exists). Drive through possible to the highly recommended Col de Bel Homme or Col de Saint Arnoux which start after Bargemon. Recommended!

Beklommen 11 augustus 2021. Het eerste deel loopt licht oplopend over Route de l'ancienne voie ferrée of te wel de oude spoorlijn die keurig is geasfalteerd. Deze weg staat bekend als gevaarlijk (sluipweggetje waar verkeer te hard rijdt). Dan komt je aan in Callas, neem de weg rechts die daalt wat en op de T splitsing links het dorp door. Ook daar oppassen voor verkeer en voetgangers. Na het dorp lopend klimmetje naar de col. Geen faciliteiten behalve vuilniscontainers. Col werd vaak gebruikt in het parcours van de Tour de Haut Var (bestaat niet meer). Doorrijden mogelijk naar de zeer aan te raden Col de Bel Homme of Col de Saint Arnoux die na Bargemon beginnen. Aanraders!
