The start is very steep! Don't be fooled by the average percentage of this pass, as the last kilometre is flat, and as it's relatively short you'll have realised the start is quite tough. Otherwise, the road is in good condition and traffic is almost non-existent, so it's a good little pass.... read more

Le début est très raide ! Il ne faut pas se fier au pourcentage moyen de ce col, car le dernier km est plat, et comme il est relativement court vous l'aurez compris le début est assez corsé. Sinon la route est en bon état et la circulation quasi inexistante, donc un bon petit col.
