Good to test the legs or as a warm-up for longer climbs. Very regular percentages and nice views when you get to the top.
Goed om de benen te testen of als opwarming voor langere beklimmingen. Heel regelmatige percentages en mooie uitzichten als je boven bent.
The climb is relatively short but quite steep and sportive, in the middle of rich suburban houses. This pass is often an intermediate point to go to the col de Porte : at the top of Clémencière, either you turn right and join after 3 or 4 km of easy ascent the main route of the col de Porte at the level of the col de Vence, a few km before le Sappey-en-Chartreuse, or you go straight down in a short descent which joins the ascent route to the col de Palaquit by Sarcenas. The said Palaquit pass is also on the main route to the Porte pass, but only 2.5 km from the pass. My preference is for this variant.
Montée relativement courte mais assez pentue et sportive, au milieu de riches maisons de banlieue. Ce col est souvent un point intermédiaire pour aller ensuite au col de Porte : au sommet de Clémencière, soit on tourne à droite et on rejoint après 3 ou 4 km de montée facile l'itinéraire principal du col de Porte au niveau du col de Vence, quelques km avant le Sappey-en-Chartreuse, soit on va tout droit dans une courte descente qui rejoint l'itinéraire de montée au col de Palaquit par Sarcenas. Ledit col de Palaquit étant lui aussi sur l'itinéraire principal du col de Porte, mais à 2,5 km du col seulement. Ma préférence va vers cette variante-là.
