In my experience, the pass is fairly straightforward, but some parts of it are steep and hard. Traffic is a little heavy for the first 5km, and it's a shame there's no sign indicating the name of the pass and the altitude.

De mon expérience,le col est plutôt simple mais des parties reste bien pentu et dure.La circulation est un tout petit peu élevée les 5 premiers kilomètres.Dommage qu’il n’y ai pas de panneau qui indique le nom du col et l’altitude
