Small pass, ideal as a starting point for hikes

The route up from Biere on the Swiss side is a solid steady climb with a few 12% and 13% sections. Traffic is quite light and the road is excellent. The trees give some nice protection from the sun and wind. Crossing the col northwards takes you down to the Vallé de Joux on a pretty steep decent with great corners and some short straights. My brakes made sounds I have never heard before! I did this and Col de Mollendrux together for a great 80k / 1,500 m ride. Recommended.

Perfect Photo Spot

Thanks to its moderately steep roads, the Col du Mollendruz is one of the Jura passes that's more enjoyable than strenuous. From L'Isle, the climb begins with a long stretch through meadows, with the second section mostly in the forest.

If you're looking for peace and quiet in the Jura mountains, a drive up the ridge of Mont Tendre is just what you need. The narrow road winds its way through most of the forest up to the Alpage, where a magnificent panorama of the Lake Geneva region and, on the other side, the Vallé de Joux awaits.

Pass with small kiosk

You can get a coffee at the bike/cross-country ski rental shop in the parking lot. It's worth it.

Very nice welcome for a break.
