The Col de Pouriac (French) or Colle di Puriac (Italian) is a border pass between Italy and France . From the Italian side, a military road leads to the top at an altitude of 2506 meters. This is already closed to motorized traffic shortly before the village of Ferrere . The road is still passable for cars up to the Alm Gias di Colombart . The further way to the apex, where the brook Pouriac pours into the Pouriactal from a source nearby, is almost completely ruined.
Difficulty level according to the Denzel Alpine Road Scale : 4-5
