The first few kilometres are on a main road with lots of traffic. The gradient is never very steep and is always even. Once you reach the plateau, there is a long, flat downhill section and then a pretty little road to the summit. Quite a long but fairly straightforward pass... read more

Premiers kilomètres sur une grande route avec beaucoup de trafic. La pente n’est jamais très raide et est tout le temps régulière. Arrivé sur le plateau il y a un long faut plat descendant puis une jolie petite route pour arriver au sommet. Un col assez long mais plutôt simple

Good little pass with a good warm up during the first km. Ideal to get back on track while breaking your legs a little!

Bon petit col avec une bonne mise en jambes pendant les 1ers km. Idéal pour reprendre du service tout en se cassant les pattes un minimum !
