A fairly interesting climb on the outskirts of the Lyon conurbation that provides access to the Monts du Lyonnais. The profile is pleasant and varied, with no respite, but accessible with an easy first part, then an increase in the percentages to around 8% until you reach the summit. A few viewpoints but nothing crazy by this slope. Perfect for training.... read more

Ascension assez interessante à la sortie de l’agglomération lyonnaise qui permet d’accéder aux Monts du Lyonnais. Le profil est agréable et varié, sans répit, mais accessible avec une première partie facile, puis une augmentation des pourcentages autour des 8% jusqu’à l’arrivée au sommet. Quelques points de vue mais rien de dingue par ce versant. Parfait pour s’entraîner.
