One of my favorite cols whatever the side climbed. On the north side, coming from Collobrières, the pass is reasonably steep (between 4 and 5%) but offers practically no respite for 5 or 6 km. On the south side, the decorations are sumptuous. The pass is 8 km long but offers many almost flat sections. There is a 2.5 km steeper passage, around 6%. To do absolutely!

Ascent from the north, very smooth asphalt, average gradient 5% over 5.6 km, very pleasant! Parking at the top to be reached by car if necessary
