The Col d'Ey, however low (718 meters above sea level), has a panorama worthy of the greatest passes! Its view of the north face of Ventoux is like a shock, as the vision is sublime. You feel like the switchbacks in the road are leading you straight there. An intense jubilation takes you during the beautiful descent that follows. I recommend that you climb the pass via Saint-Jalles, and do the descent which leads to Buis-les-Barronies.
