Tips

Fairly easy pass on the Ronno side. Beginning of the Col du Pilon quite busy with cars then branch off for a quieter road. The landscape is not too present on the other hand the atmosphere is great in the forest especially in wet weather. On the St Just d'Avray side if you climb from the Azergues valley, the ascent is long but gradual. The percentages become really interesting from St Just. On this side the landscapes are more present before branching off for the last part where you enter the forest with an even steeper percentage: 6/7% with the same refreshing atmosphere, especially in summer. At the top there is not a great view but for the atmosphere, the altitude it is still nice. You can join the forest road of the ridges in gravel or mountain bike.
