This is a beautiful, little-known climb that takes you to the Vallée de Joux and hence to Le Brassus via a route that is much less busy than the Col du Marchairuz. The ascent takes you through a peaceful forest, with no major difficulties, but you need to save some energy for the end, which is steeper over a short section. There are a number of chalets along the way, ideal for taking a break or refuelling.

Une très belle ascension méconnue, qui permet de rejoindre la vallée de Joux et donc Le Brassus par une route bien moins fréquentée que le col du Marchairuz. L’ascension traverse une forêt paisible, sans grande difficulté, mais il faut garder un peu d’énergie pour la fin, plus raide sur une courte portion. Quelques chalets jalonnent le parcours, idéals pour faire une pause ou se ravitailler.
