beautiful pass, quite rolling especially through St Germain de Joux, a little tougher on the Saint Claude side. lots of writing on the ground since the Tour de France passed through.

Long pass, hard at the beginning but easier at the end. Big road but it goes through without any problem.

Perched at an altitude of 1,323 metres, the Col de la Faucille welcomes you with a 360-degree panorama of the Alps and the Valserine Valley. Whether you attack it from the north or the south, the spectacle is not long in coming. Its ascent from the south, on the road to Gex, has the appearance of a great Alpine pass with its many bends and countless views of the Mont-Blanc massif.

A Sunday in July, not too much traffic, but the cars and motorcycles go fast. Arriving at the top, a fire engine rushes past me, I discover a cyclist lying on the side, his bike tumbling... The view is beautiful at the top, but doesn't really offer a viewpoint, and the climb is blocked by the forest. The descent towards the lake however is nice.

Just cracked the 1000m above sea level. The first of several passes on my stage today with 2,500m of elevation. Pedal up slowly and enjoy the peace and quiet. There are very few cars here

Very beautiful panoramic view

A wonder. Make the descent by Mijoux because the bitumen of the Vattay road is really bad.

The Col de la Faucille from Gex is 11.8 km long with a total drop of 703 m. The average gradient is 5.96% with maximum gradients of 8.1%. It is part of the Massif du Jura.
