An uphill ride that is just about feasible with a touring bike, even if it can be seen as a challenge. From Prats de Mollo, the route climbs over 1517 m to 2252 m and, as a special difficulty, the road is not paved in the upper third. Here the name "Roques-Blanches" definitely makes sense, because it goes uphill on white gravel and up to 10-12% steep. Barely mobile, even with luggage, but in no case recommended for narrow racing bike tires - and those who want to enjoy the descent are definitely better served with an MTB.
Nevertheless, the pass also offers spectacular views and everyone can finally drive over mountains on fine asphalt ;-).

Ridden in Gravel, well loaded: it's fine, but you don't have to be in a hurry! From the Conques refuge, no walls that are too steep, but lots and lots of stones. You can hear (and maybe see?) the marmots. The breathtaking views along the way will not make you regret a single drop of sweat! However, be careful of cows which can block the path, especially if they have young ones.
