A pretty little pass, sheltered from the traffic on the main roads. The road is in very good condition and the gradient is even. Very pleasant, but not very long, ideal for beginners. The scenery isn't great, but it's nice all the same.... read more

Joli petit col à l'abris de la circulation des grands axes. La route est en très bon état et la pente régulière. Très agréable, mais pas très long, idéal pour débuter. La paysages ne sont pas grandioses, mais très sympas tout de même.

A pleasant climb with little traffic and a top viewpoint, but avoid it if the Mistral is blowing.

Ascension sympa à faire peu de circulation et point de vue au top par contre à éviter si le Mistral souffle
