Nice steady climb of about 8 ％ mostly through forest, with occasional views. The last few hundred metres are off limits to cars. On the col you have nice views towards the mountains on the French border. The asphalt road ends and turns into paths and dirt roads. Along the way every kilometre there is a sign indicating how tough the coming kilometre is and how many more kilometres to the summit.
