Nice climb, which is good to include in a round trip from the lake of Serre Poncon. Runs nicely and makes you at the end few times gasping for breath. If you are a bit trained, well to good. Beautiful view on top ... if you do not have clouds ....... read more

Mooie klim, die goed is op te nemen in een ronde vanuit het meer van Serre Poncon. Loopt lekker en doet je op het eind paar keer naar adem happen. Als je beetje getraind bent, wel goed te goed. Mooie uitzicht bovenop...als je geen bewolking hebt...

Just rode it without any serious training. That made it definitely a tough climb, especially the second part in the forest. All in all a real pleasure. Very nice and quiet.

The asphalt is for the most part in good condition, although you have to be careful on some parts in the descent (back).

Zojuist opgereden zonder serieus getraind te hebben. Dat maakte het absoluut een pittige klim, zeker het tweede deel in het bos. Al met al wel echt genieten. Erg mooi en lekker rustig.

Het asfalt is voor het grootste deel in goede staat, hoewel je (terug) in de afdaling wel moet uitkijken op sommige stukken.

Pretty heavy climb. Nice and quiet though. Last kilometers are very steep and go over a narrow road through the forest.

Vrij zware klim. Wel heerlijk rustig. Laatste kilometers zijn erg steil en gaan over een smal weggetje door t bos.
