A very gentle, tricky climb for the first half but then becomes quite difficult.
There's little shade, which gives you an unobstructed view of the various valleys flowing into the baume. The reward at the top is the descent to Johannas, which offers a magnificent view of the Tanargue.
It's still a busy road, but the carriageway is wide enough with plenty of visibility, so we're quite visible to motorists.
Ascension piégeuse très douce sur la première moitié mais devient d'un coup assez difficile.
Peu d'ombre qui laisse une vue dégagé sur les différentes vallées se jetant dans la baume. La récompense au sommet est cette descente vers Johannas qui nous laisse découvrir une magnifique vue sur le tanargue.
Route tout de même legerement fréquentée, mais la chaussée est assez large avec beaucoup de visibilité ce qui nous laisse assez visible aux automobilistes.
Nice little climb in beautiful surroundings on the edge of the central massif in the Ardeche. Nowhere really steep but harder than you would expect on climbfinder. A beautiful road surface but some traffic and since there is no cycle path like almost everywhere in France, you have to be careful. No shade and in the Ardeche it can be hot . Today the strong headwind was an additional factor to make the legs hurt even more. The road is very wide and twisty but no hairpins.
Leuk klimmetje in een mooie omgeving aan de rand van het centraal massief in de Ardeche. Nergens echt steil maar wel zwaarder dan je op climbfinder zou verwachten. Een prachtig wegdek wel af tie wat verkeer en aangezien dat er geen fietspad is zoals bijna overal in Frankrijk is het opletten. Geen schaduw en in de Ardeche kan het warm zijn . Vandaag was de sterke tegenwind een extra factor om de benen nog meer pijn te doen. De weg is zeer breed en bochtig maar geen haarspeldbochten.
