fairly busy and otherwise nothing special, only took it to get to the other side of the pass to do the climbs to the Champ du Feu.

redelijk druk en voorts niets speciaals, heb hem enkel genomen om aan de andere kant van de pas te komen om de beklimmingen naar de Champ du Feu te doen.

The Col du Donon was ideal for me as a beginner (and too heavy) climber: It starts quite calmly, which makes it easy to get used to the pressure on the legs.

The road was in good condition, quiet and beautiful through the forest. Highly recommended if you are in the area.

De Col du Donon was voor mij als beginnende (en te zware) klimliefhebber ideaal: Hij begint vrij rustig, waardoor het goed wennen is aan de druk op de benen.

De weg was in prima staat, rustig en mooi door het bos. Een aanrader als je in de buurt bent.

The ascent of the Col du Donon is a long journey through a forest that is never difficult. This is a climb that is ideal for those just starting out, to do with your partner, or just to enjoy by yourself as a less steep event. The first few kilometers are so easy that you almost wouldn't count them. With about 10 kilometers to go, it slowly gets over 4%. But it never gets really hard. You get more and more between the trees towards the end and it only gets better. The top is a good kilometre earlier than where the French indicate it.
The road surface is top notch, I haven't seen much traffic despite it being a fairly wide road.

De beklimming van de Col du Donon is een lange reis door een bos die nooit moeilijk is. Dit is een klim die ideaal is voor hen die net beginnen, om samen met je partner te doen of om gewoon zelf van te genieten als een keer een wat minder steil gebeuren. De eerste kilometers zou je bijna niet meetellen zo makkelijk zijn die eerste stukken. Met nog een kilometer of 10 te gaan gaat het langzaamaan boven de 4% komen. Maar echt zwaar wordt het nooit. Je komt richting het einde steeds meer tussen de bomen en het wordt eigenlijk alleen maar mooier. De top ligt een dikke kilometer eerder dan waar de Fransen hem aangeven.
Het wegdek in deze klim is top, verkeer heb ik weinig gezien, ondanks dat dit een vrij brede weg is.
