Description

Another pass of the great Alpine road. Scenery is not fantastic, but you'll enjoy drive it because curves are not too tight.

The climb on south face will bring you from la Clusaz to the summit on a wide and well surfaced road. The downhill towards Flumet is a bit more 'technic', but also great!

Route agréable avec une montée (au nord) à chicanes et virages suffisament larges pour rouler à un bon rythme. Le revetement sur cette portion est en bon état. A l'inverse la descente vers Flumet est plus sinueuse est beaucoup plus étroite avec une qualité de révetement médiocre. Peu de circulation en moyenne saison.
