Tips
1267 m high for an enchanting pass, very peaceful in the heart of nature.

A very beautiful pass at altitude very little frequented with beautiful views. Since Montbrison it is quite long with fairly low but regular percentages. Be careful in winter the road is not desalinated (water withdrawal area) and in the forest which makes it a little dangerous. At the top, the summit is flat and you have to drive a little before you find the sign signifying the arrival at the top. There is no view at the top but the atmosphere is very nice. You can easily reach the Col des Supeyres, in the sequence via a small road that climbs gently.
