The Col de Pontis is not well known, but it is definitely one of the most beautiful climbs in France. But be careful, because it's not easy at all. Especially from the south side (especially in the summer) the Col de Pontis is tough, but at its best. Each new hairpin bend provides new views of Lac de Serre-Ponçon. The climb is a total of 5.3 kilometers with an average of 9.6%.

The Pontis pass is not the most prestigious of the Ubaye passes, but to miss it would be a shame, from a sporting or tourist point of view!

The climb is very demanding, you have to pay attention to the asphalt which is not in good condition on both sides. The view of the lake is magnificent.
