Nice Spot! Absolutely cyclitsapproved 🫵🫰

Nice mountain, cycling and hiking

After the effort, your reward at the top of the Col du Feu is a magnificent view of the peaks of the Chablais massif and Lake Geneva.

The Col de Cou, at an altitude of 1,117 metres, takes you from the Vallée Verte to the Côte-en-Chablais region. Several roads lead there, which allows you to train by varying the routes and difficulties. The hardest climb is the one on the western slope from Fessy, with seven kilometres at an average of 7.5%.

Nice climb just too steep, about 5%, and not too busy.

Here you are at 1,117 meters above sea level. After an ascent of six kilometers coming from Orcier (north slope) and three kilometers from Lullin (south slope), you deserve a little break. The bar-restaurant located just a stone's throw away offers simple and rich cuisine. Enough to regain some strength for the rest of your day.

A pretty little pass, quite rolling (5%) on a road away from the heavy traffic of the departmental road at its foot.

Between the Pointe de Targaillan to the south and the Aiguille to the north, the Col de Cou is the crossing point between the Vallée Verte to the west and the Côte-en-Chablais region to the east, from where it is accessible from Draillant and Fessy. On the edge of the communes of Cervens and Habère-Poche, it is crossed at an altitude of 1,117 m[1] by the D12 road linking Thonon-les-Bains to Bonneville. This has a passage on its northern slope at 6.5% and on its southern slope at 6%. The climb from Fessy, much steeper, has an average gradient of 7.5% with a passage at 9% over 400 meters Source Wikipedia https://fr.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Col_de_Cou_(vall%C3%A9e_Verte)
