Small pass, ideal as a starting point for hikes

Magnificent view of the lake

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.

"The view over the lake is absolutely breathtaking—such a peaceful and scenic spot! And the wineries in the area are perfect for cycling, especially with the calm, low-traffic roads. It’s a dream route for wine lovers and nature enthusiasts alike!"

Pass with small kiosk

Located at an altitude of 674 metres, Lake Bret is a natural reservoir which supplies the city of Lausanne with drinking water.

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

After a steep climb on both sides, this place, known to cyclists as "Le Col du Mont Pèlerin" at an altitude of 850m (not to be confused with the summit of Mont Pèlerin (1079m), offers a reward to those who have climbed it in the form of a breathtaking view of Lake Geneva and the surrounding mountains.
