The refreshment bar is run by Virginie and Sébastien, who are always happy to welcome hikers. This alpine refreshment bar also offers direct sales of cheeses made on site using milk from the Tronc mountain pasture herd. Deliciousness guaranteed!

Beautiful, smooth, never extremely steep and only a few cars even on weekends.

The rewards are the magnificent view of the Val de Bagnes and the cheese crust at the refreshment bar at the Col du Lein

The Col road goes from Martigny at 471 m with an average gradient of about 9%, over the Col des Planches then descends to Sembrancher at 717 m with an average gradient of 7%. The view over the Rhone Valley is superb.
