Here is the route for the ascent of the Col des Limouches starting from Peyrus

Gentle climb. Wine in the bottle for the Bacchus Pass!

This mountain pass is named after one of the great aviation pioneers of France. There are several ways to reach this pass, but whichever you choose, you will always have a beautiful view from this place.

This pass can be reached in no less than 5 ways. For touring cyclists, the route via Beaufort-sur-Gervanne is recommended, because it is the most constant and gradual.

The Col road leads to Barbières, winding through the sublime landscapes of the Vercors. Upon reaching the village, after a gentle but winding climb, the view opens up onto majestic mountains and green valleys. Dotted with meadows and forests, this route is ideal for cyclists in search of natural beauty. The village of Barbières, nestled at the foot of the cliffs, offers a picturesque setting, perfect for a well-deserved break.

The climb on the other side is no less strenuous, but it's nice to have made it.

Beautiful views. Great new road surface - 2024

Cafe / Resto at the bottom. Nothing at the top. The road has just been resurfaced so the descent is great. Be careful though, especially in the wet as water drains across the surface in places, typically on or just before the corners. Plenty of coffee and cake in Chabeuil. If you wanted to add a bit more you could descend to Beaufort-sur-Gervanne, which is a good option if the boulangerie is open, or loop across the top from Cavalli to Col des Limouches. It's over 1000 meters altitude and the descent is more technical. Some shaded picnic tables too.
