A really pleasant climb, with very little traffic and pleasant scenery, particularly in the autonomous regions. There's a water point in the village of Saint Martin if you need it.

Montée vraiment agréable, la circulation est très faible et les paysages sont agréables notamment en autonomes. Dans le village de Saint Martin il y a un point d'eau ci besoin.

Nice and quiet climb, with about halfway beautiful views over the valley where you come from cycling. After a bit on a narrow road along a rock face you suddenly dive into a forest, where you cycle after some winding to the top. On the whole climb I saw one cyclist and one car.

Mooie en rustige beklimming, met ongeveer halverwege prachtige vergezichten over het dal waar je uit komt gefietst. Na een stukje over een smal weggetje langs een rotswand hebt gefietst duik je ineens een bos in, waar je na wat gekronkel weer uit fietst om bij de top aan te komen. Op de hele beklimming een wielrenner gezien en één auto tegengekomen.

Nice climb, from St Pons it is more fun. Via a goat path you crawl up, without encountering a single car. Halfway is strangely enough a hotel overlooking a rock formation

aardige beklimming, vanuit St Pons is hij leuker. Via een geitenpad kruip je omhoog, zonder een enkele auto tegen te komen. halverwege is er merkwaardig genoeg een hotel met uitzicht op een rots formatie
