A superb climb through lavender fields, a cliff-side gorge (short but impressive) and then a few short laces through undergrowth. The atmosphere is really nice and the traffic moderate!

Beautiful climb! Start is very easy with low percentages. It gets really nice when you ride through the gorge of the Pas de Lauzun. The devil is in the tail in terms of percentages

Nice climb that starts evenly and slowly you cycle out of civilisation and gets rougher as you cycle into the Saou forest. Looks great!

Nice and easy climb with good variation.
A lot of motorbikes on the road but not that disturbing.
The way down to Saou was really nice afterwards.

The beginning is a bit long but the end is beautiful. The river next door, a hare running away. Beautiful! This was the pass I used to do when I was a teenager, I found it really hard and now I find it quite easy, normal.

Short but very irregular pass, a bit of a pain in the ass with peaks at 15％ but the finish in the narrow Lauzun step leading to the Sâou forest is worth it!

Col du pas de Lauzun from Aouste: Beautiful, Prettier, Most Beautiful. A nice climb with a beautiful scenery especially in the second part. The col starts in Aouste and doesn't suggest that it is such a beautiful climb but after 1.5 km the scenery changes completely and you are amazed how beautiful the Drome is. Especially the penultimate km, which has an average of 10％ and peaks of 15％ is beautiful. The climb starts slowly with averages of 2 to 4％ but at 3 km from the top it gets quite tough. And the penultimate km is quite tough. The last km is at 6％ . This col is highly recommended, but not for its climbing percentages but for its beautiful surroundings. Note that it is quite irregular.

Beautiful climb with a tough part at the end of the climb at the actual pass. After the climb a nice descent to the beautiful village of Saou
