Quelle expérience sur ce col ! Une vue fabuleuse et des passages assez déroutants. Quel bon souvenir. Surtout lors du passage du tour !

Beautiful short climb with nice views and little traffic. The second last kilometre is a tough one with percentages up to 15%. The last kilometre is an opportunity to catch your breath and continue to the top. Be careful, at the top you have to pass the hut on the mountain to finish the climb.
6,5 kilometers of climbing from the village of Le Noyer. The approach can be from different sides. If you come from Poligny, the approach is on average 4% with some up and down, if you come from La Coue, the approach is 5 to 6 percent and the total climb to the top is over 12 kilometers. Be sure to arrive early to avoid the heat in summer.

Prachtige korte klim met mooie vergezichten en weinig autoverkeer. De een na laatste kilometer hakt er stevig in met percentages tot boven de 15%. De laatste kilometer kun je op adem komen en nog even doortrekken tot de top. Let op, boven op de top nog even voorbij de berghut op de berg fietsen om de klim ook echt af te maken.
6,5 kilometer klimwerk vanuit het dorp Le Noyer. De aanloop kan vanaf verschillende kanten.

Zorg dat je vroeg bent om de warmte voor te zijn in de zomer.
