A fine climb, on a road in very good condition and with little traffic (as is often the case in the region). The slope becomes less and less steep, but beware of the wind, which can sometimes blow quite hard towards the summit, or of the sun, as most of the route is in the open. The view from the top is very beautiful and allows you to take full advantage of the Ardèche landscapes.
Une belle montée, sur une route en très bon état et avec peu de circulation (comme souvent dans la région). La pente est de moins en moins dure mais attention au vent qui parfois peut souffler assez fort en direction du sommet ou encore au soleil car la majeure partie s'effectue à découvert. La vue en haut est très belle et permet de bien profiter des paysages ardéchois.
