Contrairement à son homonyme de l'Oisans, c'est un petit col (et un passage obligé) quand on parcourt l'intégralité du Balcon de Belledonne.
On peut choisir également d'y accéder à partir de bien plus bas, en partant de Brignoud, dans la vallée du Grésivaudan, et en passant par Laval, mais en général les cyclistes partant de la vallée préfèrent obliquer vers le col des Mouilles, un peu plus haut en altitude.
À proximité du col se trouve un mémorial en l'honneur de la compagnie Stéphane, un groupe de résistants très actifs lors de la seconde guère mondiale.
