The start of the climb is more difficult and more exposed than the finish. A little traffic, a fairly steady climb before the flat area near the summit. This is the most difficult side to the Col de la Loge, where you can stop for a drink. A nice climb if you're in the area.

Le début d'ascension est plus difficile et plus exposé que le final. Un petit peu de circulation, une montée assez régulière avant le replat proche du sommet. Il s'agit du versant le plus difficile pour accéder au col de la Loge où vous pourrez vous arrêter boire un verre. Une ascension sympa si vous êtes dans le coin

Very beautiful surroundings. The climb winds slowly upwards, with many bends and beautiful views and little traffic.
The sting is in the first 4.5 km. After that it is a runner for 2 km.

Erg fraaie omgeving. De klim slingert langzaam omhoog, veel bochten en mooie uitzichten en ook weinig verkeer.
Het venijn zit in de eerste 4,5 km. Daarna is het 2 km een loper.
