This is not a 'solitary target' climb - if you are in the area include it in a circuit. The alternative to climbing the col is going round the Lac Castillon and over the lower col de Roubins which is significantly longer though more scenic.
The climb is not too demanding with several hairpins and short steep sections.
In summer the road (route Napoleon) is heavily frequented by tourist traffic, during the spring time and autumn less so.
