Schöne Gegend, sehr abgeschieden. Kein typisches Passfeeling, aber einfach schön, dort zu fahren. Wenig Verkehr.

I had just done the Port de Pailhères. in the valley, towards Font-Romeu, it was really hard to drive between the melted asphalt surfaces, it was that hot. If you didn't you were slowed down in your speed. With the busy through traffic, this was not always obvious. I was delighted the moment I turned onto the D17 at Escouloubre to head for the summit. Before you reach the Garavel, however, you have to cross the col de Moulis..... two birds with one stone. Like so many Pyrenean cols, this one is also quite irregular. So it's constantly shifting up and down, and consequently a difficult one to stay in your rhythm. A reasonable runner with some tough sections. Beautiful climb, quiet surroundings and virtually no traffic. After the descent, you arrive at Roquefort de Sault halfway up the Col de Jau. Attention : Just outside the village is a stretch of -15％.

Ik had net de Port de Pailhères gedaan. in het dal, richting Font-Romeu was het echt tussen de gesmolten asfaltvlakken doorrijden, zo heet was het. Deed je dat niet werd je afgeremd in je snelheid. Met het drukke doorgaande verkeer was dat niet altijd evident. Ik was maar wat blij op het ogenblik dat ik bij Escouloubre de D17 opdraaide om richting top te rijden. Voor je echter bij de Garavel komt moet je wel eerst over de col de Moulis..... twee vliegen in een klap dus. Zoals zovele Pyreneeëncols is ook deze vrij onregelmatig. Het is dus constant op en af schakelen, en bijgevolg een moeilijke om in je ritme te blijven. Een redelijke loper met een aantal pittige stukken. Mooie klim, rustige omgeving en omzeggens geen verkeer. Na de afdaling kom je bij Roquefort de Sault halverwege de col de Jau uit. Opgelet : Net buiten het dorp ligt een stuk van -15％.
