I was finally able to do it! Very nice climb through the woods from the start to the summit, but the slope hurts! the first wall takes its toll on the legs, and the part at 14％ finishes them off for good, this straight section seems endless, but from my low level I'm proud to have made it to the top!
There are several signs from Wasselonne on how to find this climb.
The pavement is in perfect condition and looks as if it's been resurfaced very recently. However, if you go down towards Cosswiller, be very careful, the start is well tarmacked but you are soon surprised by the transition to a very bad road.
J'ai enfin pu la faire ! très belle montée à travers les bois du début jusqu'au sommet, mais que la pente fait mal ! le premier mur entame les jambes, et la partie à 14％ les achève définitivement, cette ligne droit parait interminable, mais de mon petit niveau je suis fier d'être arrivé au sommet !
Plusieurs panneaux sont disponibles à partir de Wasselonne pour sur pour trouver cette montée.
Concernant la chaussée, parfait état, elle a l'air d'avoir été refait très récemment. Par contre, si vous descendez vers Cosswiller, faites très attention, le début est bien bitumé mais on est vite surpris par la transition ensuite sur une chaussée très mauvaise.
Short and intense, the road is not as bad as it seems...
Isolated climb, but you always see a lot of cyclists, it's a classic in the area...
Court et intense, la route n'est pas si mauvaise qu'indiqué...
montée isolée mais on y voit toujours beaucoup de cyclistes, c'est un classique du secteur...
