A spicy little back road through the town. I think it’s one way except for cycles, although the signs are inconsistent (see picture). The surface is a bit rough, and there are a few pedestrians, but otherwise a quiet and quirky little back street.
It's true that this little wall is well hidden!
Would it be ashamed to be so tough? What's more, the pavement is pretty worn.
And then, to start climbing between the bakery and the butcher's shop, that's quite an omen.
C’est vrai qu’il est bien caché ce petit mur !
Il aurait honte d’être si coriace ?
De plus, le revêtement est bien esquinté.
Et puis, entamer une ascension entre la boulangerie et la boucherie, c’est tout de même un sacré présage.

Verstopt in het centrum van Briançon: smal en vreselijk steil. Let op voor auto's is dit eenrichtingsverkeer naar beneden en als je ze tegenkomt hou je weinig ruimte over. Gelukkig rijden er maar weinig auto's. Leuk voor wielrenners die van bijzondere hellingen houden. Praktisch is deze klim niet.
