When does the Tizi n'Test usually open and close?
In a typical year it is driveable from March to May. 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 Tizi n'Test?
The summit of the driven road sits at about 2,141 m (7,024 ft), which is why the season is set by snow rather than by the calendar.
