Petit Mont-Cenis Pass

It is open between Pointe Droset (2,917 m) and Pointe de Bellecombe (2,755 m). It links Bramans in France (north-west) to Moncenisio and Susa in Italy (south-east).
The narrow asphalt road that serves it breaks away from the D1006 at the Col du Mont-Cenis and, after skirting the lake of the same name to the north-west, passes near the refuge of Petit Mont-Cenis and joins the pass on the Val de Suse side. On the Maurienne side, a path descends into the Ambin valley and allows you to reach Bramans on foot or by mountain bike.
