The surface of the road to the summit is rocky with lots of slippery gravel, rough and pretty bumpy. It’s pretty steep and deserted. The road is usually impassable from October to June (weather permitting). Great trail for experienced wheelers. Avoid driving in this area if unpaved mountain roads aren't your strong point. 4x4 vehicle required. Stay away if you're scared of heights. Expect a trail pretty steep. At the summit there’s a mountain refuge called Refuge de l'Etendard.
