A very regular and never steep pass, perfect for starting out or getting into your stride before the big passes in the area, which won't leave you a moment's peace.

Un col très régulier et jamais raide, parfait pour débuter ou se mettre en jambe avant les gros cols dans le secteur qui ne vous laisseront pas de répit

Was the last "low"col before entering the High Pyrenees. Friendly percentages and lengths especially through the forest.

Was de laatste "lage"col voordat ik de Hoge Pyreneen inging. Vriendelijke percentages en lengtes vooral door het bos.
