Super pass to do from Sail sous Couzan for a real climb. It can be done in different variants by taking the traditional route, via St Just en bas or Palogneux. In any case, the roads remain very uncrowded and the landscapes are really beautiful with cliffs and pine forests. It almost feels like being in the south depending on where you look. Percentages are never too high. If we go through Palogneux the climb is steeper but a descent allows us to rest.
