Nice pass to do from St Bonnet le Troncy, from St Nizier d'Azergues, or in the descent from Favardy. On the bike course of the Lac des Sapins triathlon to spice it up with a little d+. From St Nizier the climb is quite long with good percentages. The points of view are not legion. The view at the pass is not too present, you have to move to have a view (especially in the direction of Favardy). The pass is seldom used, which makes it all the more enjoyable. You can take the GR7 forest path in gravel or mountain biking from the pass. The cross is located at the very beginning of the descent to St Bonnet on the left at the edge of the forest.
