A regular route, in perfect condition, like many roads in the Ardèche. However, it should be avoided when returning from long weekends.

Une route régulière, en parfait état, comme beaucoup de routes en Ardèche. Cependant à éviter les jours de retours de grands week-end. Cette route est très fréquentée par les habitants du 42 et 43 et on a vite l'impression de rouler sur une nationale. Sinon un pur régal
