Superb, but difficult pass by the southern slope from Saint-Dalmas-le-Selvage (a very quiet road, 11km at 8.5%... ). Possibility to join the road to the Col de la Bonnette by a track in good condition, or to join the road to the Col de la Cayolle by a very gravel track).

At 2444 m, the Col de la Moutière is a very little-known high pass in the Alpes-Maritimes. From Saint-Étienne-de-Tinée, the climb is 18 km long with 1300 meters of elevation gain at an average of 7% with some steeper sections towards the end. A worthwhile climb for the spectacular views of the surrounding peaks and valleys! From here, you can continue to the Cime de la Bonette.
