Obviously, this climb can’t compete with the three undisputed passes (Iseran, Cormet, Petit Saint Bernard), but it holds its own. If you don’t want to—or can’t—tackle an hors catégorie pass every day, its reasonable length makes it a very good alternative. Good road surface. Pleasant curves. A quiet road leading to a charming little chapel set against a mountain range that you often pass along the way. A very enjoyable climb.... read more

Évidemment, cette ascension ne rivalise pas avec les trois cols indiscutables (Iseran, Cormet, Petit Saint Bernard), mais, elle se défend bien. Si on ne veut pas, si on ne peut pas, faire un col hors catégorie chaque jour, sa longueur raisonnable lui permet d’être une très bonne alternative. Bon revêtement. Virages agréables. Une route, calme qui conduit à une mignonne petite chapelle posée devant une chaîne montagneuse que l’on croise souvent en chemin. Une côte bien plaisante.
