Tips
A fairly regular pass on paved road all along (except the last few meters but can be done well on a road bike). 5% average and 8% maximum!

It is a very beautiful climb on a road in a precarious state, especially in the final part of the climb. In addition to exceeding 2000 meters of altitude, the climb is attractive because you cross a practice area of the French army, coming across 2 or 3 abandoned tanks. The views from the top are beautiful, but you have to walk a distance on foot from the end of the road.
It is also common to come across deer and other animals since the road is rarely traveled by cars.translated by•November 27, 2023
