Super petite route de col actuellement fermée à la circulation automobile ; la route est en mauvaise état sur une section, il faut parfois slalomer entre les branches et les petits blocs de pierre mais la route est parfaitement roulable à vélo (il vaut mieux ne pas l'emprunter dans le sens de la descente je pense).
Montée pentue régulière sans être un mur. A l'ombre des arbres et sans voitures, cette montée est un must do.
Beaux panoramas par endroits sur Nantua et son lac.

Beautiful car-free climb through the forest. The climb is closed due to rocks on the road. Uphill is fine to cycle around, although there is a kilometre in the middle section with lots of junk on the road. It's all worth it because you just don't meet anyone. Sometimes steep bits, but otherwise fine to do. 4+
