A lovely climb: after passing through the village of Saint Martin sur Lavezon, turn right off the Col de Fontenelle road towards Saint Pierre la Roche.

Belle montée, après avoir passé le village de Saint Martin sur Lavezon, on prend à droite en quittant la route du col de Fontenelle en direction de Saint Pierre la Roche. Après le "village" on est dans les parties les plus difficiles de la montée, enfin la fin de la montée est plus régulière et les pourcentages sont plus faibles.
