I did this pass a few days ago. A rather short but terrible pass in places, demanding with gradients exceeding 15%. The surroundings are very beautiful and there is little traffic. At the top there is an orientation table with an impressive 360° view.... read more

J'ai effectué ce col il y a quelques jours. Un col plutôt court mais terrible par endroits, exigeant avec des pentes dépassant les 15%. Les alentours sont très beaux et il y a peu de circulation. Au sommet il y a une table d'orientation avec une vue à 360° impressionnante.

There are two extremely difficult passages on this climb, in particular the ramp leading to the Tienne hut (passage at 17%).
The landscapes are particularly magnificent throughout the ascent. Really worth doing if you want to test yourself.

Deux passages extrêmement difficiles jalonnent cette montée et notamment la rampe accédant à la cabane de Tienne (passage à 17%).
Les paysages sont particulièrement magnifiques tout au long de l'ascension. Vraiment à faire si on veut se tester.

Ridden this climb in 2013. Beautiful and very quiet surroundings. In the forest 2 kilometres quite steep, later less difficult with even some descent. Nice view at the top at a landmark. Few other well-known cols in the area. Located in a beautiful nature reserve.

Deze klim in 2013 gereden. Mooie en zeer rustige omgeving. In het bos 2 kilometer behoorlijk steil, later minder lastig met zelfs wat afdaling. Mooi uitzicht op de top bij een oriëntatiepunt. In de omgeving verder weinig bekende cols. Ligt in een prachtig natuurgebied.
