The Col de Plan Bois on this side of the mountain offers a great sporting challenge (6 km at 10%!). Much more confidential than its neighbor the Croix-Fry, it's well worth the effort, as it's all the more tranquil.
It's a mythical pass, and all those who have passed it have fond memories of it.
Cycling tip:
Take care when descending these narrow roads.
For a break on the Col de Plan Bois :
L'Auberge de Plan Bois, isolated at the foot of the Sulens.
