The Rolland Breach was mildly challenging for this 72yo when dry. Descending in the wet would need good grippy footwear. There is an alternative GR400 track bypass

This spot in the mountains is known as the "Breche de ROLAND." However, the name doesn't originate from the Auvergne Rhône-Alpes region, but rather must be located in the far west of the country, on the border between France and Spain. There, in the northern Pyrenees, the legend of Roland as a brave fighter against the Saracens (who had occupied large parts of the Iberian Peninsula) in the service of Emperor Charlemagne is rooted.

At an altitude of 1,588 meters, the Pas de Peyrol is located between the Puy Mary and the Puy de la Tourte. It is known to be the highest road pass in the Massif Central and is worth it, because the last few kilometers have high percentages. There you can admire Puy Mary which peaks at an altitude of 1,783 metres. It is one of the peaks of the Cantal mountains. It is easily recognizable with its pyramidal silhouette.

This spot in the mountains is known as "Breche de ROLAND". However, the origin of the name does not fit into the Auvergne Rhône Alpes region, but must be located in the very west of the country, on the border region between France and Spain. There, in the north of the Pyrenees Mountains, is the home of the legend of Roland as a brave fighter against the Saracens (who had occupied large parts of the Iberian Peninsula) in the service of Emperor Charlemagne.

The Brèche de Roland is located on the long ridge that connects Puy Mary to Peyre-Arse. Its name was given to it in reference to the breach of the same name in the Pyrenees. This breach located at an altitude of 1,647 meters is a delicate passage of the GR 4. Made up of alternating ash beds and scoriaceous strata, it can become slippery in rainy weather.
