08/02/23 Col de l'Ouillat (or Uliat)+ Pic Neulos.
Nice climb from Le Perthus, calm and quite regular. The surface is good until Ouillat (after that it gets really bad...). Up to the Col de l'Ouillat green markers every km show you the % to come and the altitude reached. There are still 2 or 3 missing (stolen, torn off??).
I confirm the very bad state of the Ouillat surface at the summit of Pic Neulos. There are holes, tar is missing and there is gravel. It is possible to ride a road bike but you have to be careful on the descent.
Le 08/02/23 Col de l'Ouillat (ou Uliat)+ Pic Neulos.
Belle montée depuis Le Perthus, calme et assez régulière. Le revêtement est correct jusqu'à l'Ouillat (après cela se gâte sérieusement...). Jusqu'au Col de l'Ouillat des bornes vertes tous les kms vous indiquent le % à venir et l'altitude atteinte. Il en manque tout de même 2 ou 3 (volées, arrachées??).
Je confirme le très mauvais état du revêtement de l'Ouillat au sommet du Pic Neulos. Il y a des trous, il manque du goudron et il y a des graviers. C'est jouable en vélo de route mais il faut être prudent dans la descente.
Recommended. Nice long climb, road surface good. Until col d'ouilliat. There is also a mountain hut where you can drink coffee.
Then the road surface is a little less, but absolutely doable with a road bike, here and there a pothole in the road that can be avoided.
I would definitely climb to the top, I have done this several times. Beautiful views at the top.
Aanrader. Mooie lange klim, wegdek goed. Tot aan col d’ouilliat. Daar ook een berghut waar je koffie kunt drinken.
Daarna wegdek ietsjes minder, maar absoluut nog met de racefiets te doen, hier en daar een put in de weg die wel te ontwijken is.
Ik zou zeker tot aan de top klimmen, heb dit al meerdere keren gedaan. Mooie vergezichten op de top.
Today I was able to ride up to the top, you can (and may) just pass the barrier. Asphalt is indeed a bit less between Col de l'Ouillat and the barrier but that improves again afterwards. Last kilometers are pretty steep but no cars and the view at the top is beautiful.
Vandaag tot aan de top kunnen rijden, de slagboom kan (en mag) je gewoon passeren. Asfalt is inderdaad iets minder tussen Col de l’Ouillat en de slagboom maar nadien betert dat terug. Laatste kilometers zijn vrij steil maar zonder auto’s en het uitzicht op de top is prachtig.
