Coll de Sansa

Located in the Pyrénées, a range of mountains in southwest Europe that forms a natural border between France and Spain, there are 6 possible routes to reach the summit. All of them are unpaved. The most used trail starts from Vilanova, and has a length of 4,1 km. The gravel road from this town is mostly fine, but it's a bit hard here and there, due to erosion of the road and some loose gravel.
This is a maintained road where a high clearance 2WD vehicle is able to travel safely at low speeds on long dry straight-of-ways, without losing control due to wash boarding, ruts, or dips. This road can be closed anytime when the access is not cleared of snow. The pass is also known as College de Sansa.
