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.

Beautiful small town in the Vaudois Jura, with many old buildings. The villages are the starting point for outdoor activities, in summer and winter. The setting is spectacular, and you can enjoy the superb views of Lake Geneva and the Alps.

There are no cars, although the cantonal road is very busy and narrow. On the other hand, it climbs hard!
