2.0 by BasRThis is an automatic translation, the original language is: Dutch.Quite a setback is what this col is. Maybe the name and the Tour de France the col gave me a positive feeling beforehand but the col can be captured in 1 word. Boring. Predominantly long motorway heading towards the pass. Last 2km there is still something of a view on the right (did see a lot of vultures). But that's it. Highlight is the brilliant signposting of the old Route du Cols. Don't detour for it.... read more

Een behoorlijke tegenvaller is wat deze col is. Misschien dat de naam en de Tour de France de col mij vooraf een positief gevoel gaven maar de col is in 1 woord te vangen. Saai.
Overwegend lange autoweg die zich richting de pas begeeft. Laatste 2km is er aan de rechterkant nog iets van een uitzicht (wel veel gieren gezien). Maar dat is het. Hoogtepunt is de schitterende wegwijzing van de oude Route du Cols. Niet voor omrijden.
A climb that does not bore from the start because of beautiful views. Plenty of turns and the gradient is not extreme making it a nice climb to start with. It cycled nicely, just a shame the restaurant was closed so we missed out on the crepes :)
Een beklimming die vanaf het begin niet verveeld vanwege prachtige vergezichten. Voldoende bochten en de stijging is niet extreem waardoor het een mooie klim is om mee te beginnen. Hij fietste lekker weg, alleen jammer dat het restaurant dicht was waardoor we de crêpes zijn misgelopen :)
A straightforward pass that lets you warm up before the more complicated gradients. It was my very first pass and the feeling at the top was fantastic...
The fork on the way up towards Peyragudes on the Loudenvielle side is shorter, but steeper!
The climb up to the Altiport is worth doing, but you need to be prepared!
Col linéaire, qui permet de se chauffer avant les pourcentages les plus compliqués. Ça a été mon tout premier col et le ressentit au sommet était fantastique...
La bifurcation quand on monte côté Loudenvielle, vers Peyragudes est certes plus courte mais plus pentue!!
La montée sur l'Altiport est à faire, mais il faut être préparé!!
