제네바 호수 지역‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪20‬개의 산길

Starting from Morez, the climb is steep in parts but easier than the slog from Nyon. The scenery? Stunning all the way, especially crossing from France into Switzerland at La Cure. In March, the top (1232m) was deep in snow and freezing, so be prepared. Then it’s all downhill.. literally, through Saint-Cergue and into a twisty, brake-testing descent to Nyon, where it was warm enough for a T-shirt. One ride, two countries, skipping through seasons.

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.

Greenery, small trail path, wild nature, everything is there to enjoy a breath of fresh air

Wide road from Vallorbe, lots of traffic, the first km is pretty steep. Juraparc near the col, with some goats and cute alpacas next to the road! An easier alternative to the Mollendruz to get into the Vallée de Joux.

Beautiful section of the Jura Ridge Trail

The Col is located on the Via Alpina and must be crossed on the stage between Gstaad and L'Etivaz.

Done this morning on the north slope, climb, by mountain bike. Everything goes very well until Gros Caudon, 1450m. Then you have to push (but the mountain bike can be towed alone!) over a 130m drop. The first half is bad, steep on a gullied path, then ends in grass. It's painful but done pretty quickly. The continuation over the Col de Jaman via Soladier and Les Verraux requires passing large, very muddy landslides. But easy.

The pass offers a beautiful view of the Vanil des Arts. Between the Col de Soladier and the Col de Jaman the path is easy via the Chemin Transversal. From Montreux the last part of the climb is very steep on the other hand.
