Geen heel bijzondere klim, ware het niet dat deze legendarisch geworden door Tim Krabbé, die hier in zijn '43 Wielerverhalen' een extra dimensie toekent. De klim is heel regelmatig, nooit echt steil. Je kunt dus doorduwen. De weg ligt vol met grind (gravaillons) en dat is link met afdalen.

Nice climb. Narrow though so watch out for cars, especially when descending from this side.

Leuke klim. Wel smal dus opletten met auto’s, zeker als je afdaalt vanaf deze kant.

Very pleasant Cévenole climb, I'm from the area so I can't be objective! A little steep in places and shaded, it's nice !

Montée Cévenole très agréable, je suis du coin donc pas objectif !! Un peu raide par endroits et ombragée, c'est sympa !!

A steady climb on a clean road that alternates between shady and sunny areas, which is pleasant in the middle of August. ^^
Beware of the narrow width of the road (3m max) with sections without low walls on the sides. Two cars can't pass each other, so there are zones where one car can park on the side to let the other through. In short, don't go over the top (°°)
Traffic is fairly light for the time of year (about 10 cars per half-hour). So it wasn't a problem for me, but I did manage to pass a camper van'it's at times like that that I'm glad I'm riding my mountain bike.

Montée régulière sur une route propre qui alterne les zones ombragées et ensoleillées ce qui est agréable en plein mois d'août. ^^
Attention à la faible largeur de route (3m max) avec des passages sans muret sur les côtés. Deux voitures ne se croisent pas aussi ils ont fait des zones où une voiture peut se garer sur le côté pour laisser passer l'autre. Bref ne descendez pas à fond la caisse (°°)
La circulation est assez faible par rapport à la saison (environ 10 voitures par demi-heure). Cela ne m'a donc pas posé de problème mais j'ai quand même réussi à croiser un camping car c'est dans ces moments là que je suis content de rouler en VTT.

Nice climb, fairly much through the forest. The tarmac is reasonably good. The climb is good to do from this side.

Leuke beklimming, redelijk veel door het bos. Het asfalt is redelijk goed. De beklimming is goed te doen vanuit deze kant.
