This slope is steeper and shorter than the Castellane side. Its scenery is also less attractive. The road is good and calm. The 12% passages are quite short.
The best thing is to do both sides but above all to climb the Stade de neige ascent.
Ce versant est plus pentu et plus court que du côté de Castellane. Ses paysages sont aussi moins attrayants.
La route est bonne et calme.
Les passages à 12% sont bien courts.
Le mieux est de faire les deux versants mais surtout d’aller grimper la montée du Stade de neige.
I had already climbed it once from Castellane and from the lake of Castillon (la cité) , so it was logical that I wanted to climb from the other side too. A climb over a quiet road with nice tarmac with some vicious sections in it. And when you are presented with this after 87 km and 6 cols, suddenly it is no longer a "climb". So officially it starts in Soleilhas, but coming out of the "Clue de Saint-Auban" it is suddenly 13 km long instead of 3.6.
Ik had hem al eens beklommen vanuit Castellane en vanaf het meer van Castillon (la cité) , dus was het logisch dat ik ook eens van de andere kant wilde klimmen. Een klimmetje over een rustige weg met mooi asfalt met enkele venijnige stukken er in. En als je dit voorgeschoteld krijgt na 87 km en 6 cols, dan is het opeens geen "klimmetje" meer. Officieel begint hij dus in Soleilhas, maar als je uit de "Clue de Saint-Auban" komt is hij plots 13 km lang ipv 3,6.
Very nice mini-climb with a number of hairpins. Make sure you have enough supplies with you: in Soleilhas is not much to find.
Erg leuke miniklim met een aantal haarspelden. Zorg dat je voldoende bevoorrading bij je hebt: in Soleilhas is niet veel te vinden.
