A very pleasant climb through woods and meadows. You follow a small river from Fontanges along an almost flat road, before tackling the real slope (which is never very steep). One of the most accessible passes in the area, I recommend continuing on to the Col de Légal. Go for it!... read more

A very pleasant climb through woods and meadows. You follow a small river from Fontanges along an almost flat road, before tackling the real slope (which is never very steep). One of the most accessible passes in the area, I recommend continuing on to the Col de Légal. Go for it!

Une ascension très agréable à travers les bois et les prés. Vous longez une petite rivière depuis Fontanges avec une route quasiment plate, avant d'attaquer la vraie pente (qui n'est jamais très raide). Un des cols les plus accessibles dans le coin, je recommande de poursuivre vers le col de Légal. Passez-y !
