Season questions

Is the Col Agnel open right now?
The official road status is the only definitive answer, and it changes fast up high. As a guide: the typical driving season runs June to November, and the pass closes for winter snow outside it. Our road note: Long seasonal snow closure The live summit weather on this page helps judge conditions today.
When does the Col Agnel usually open and close?
In a typical year it is driveable from June to November. Exact dates shift with the snowpack: a heavy winter can push opening weeks later, and early snow can shut it ahead of schedule.
How high is the Col Agnel?
The summit of the driven road sits at about 2,742 m (8,996 ft), which is why the season is set by snow rather than by the calendar.
