Two routes cross the pass, a cobbled 'old' road (rather hard going) and a heavily-engineered 'new' road (easy but closed to cyclists at the south end) with unusual flying hairpins.

The old road, south side, from the old road.

Below Sheila sweeps round a dramatic flying hairpin on the new road, with Nufenen Pass in the background.
