Peace of cake. Downright beautiful climb in terms of views through the Gorges du Toulourenc. (Provencal for Tout ou rien: All or nothing) A narrow canyon with a river. Along the way you pass the castle of the Marquis de Suarez d' Aulan. The castle is still family property and can be visited. Really worthwhile. Not a difficult climb : only in the middle part and at the end the percentages increase a bit. The road surface is not too good, but that does not really bother uphill. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1ierWj8Jya4&ab_channel=patrickcroisiaux
Peace of cake. Ronduit prachtig klimmetje qua uitzicht door de Gorges du Toulourenc. (Provencaals voor Tout ou rien : Alles of niets) Een smalle canyon met een riviertje. Onderweg kom je langs het kasteel van de Markies de Suarez d' Aulan. Het slot is nog steeds familiebezit en kan bezocht worden. Echt de moeite. Geen lastige klim : enkel in het middengedeelte en op het einde lopen de percentages iets op. Het wegdek is niet al te best, maar dat stoort bergop niet echt. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1ierWj8Jya4&ab_channel=patrickcroisiaux
