Col de la Croix Rosier (721 m)

Highlight • Mountain Pass

Great collar! The laces on the Beaujolais side are just sublime! It's just harder going up than going down.
Possible ascent of Perréon or pont-gaillard/Lamure-sur-Azergues. Difficult from the Perréon with really steep passages.

Highlight • Mountain Pass

Small pass making the junction between the Rosier Cross and the Montmain Cross, obligatory to pass there to climb one or the other by this slope. Very beautiful views throughout the ascent with magnificent switchbacks.
