Nothing will make your heart race: neither the gradients nor the scenery. Plus, it's a bit long. Lots of forest sections. A good, reasonably busy road. La Colle Saint Michel is a small cross-country ski resort. And indeed, you could imagine yourself in the Jura. Here again, it's more of a transition stage, and all the better because the descent to Colmars is quite beautiful. The scenery is chiselled and much more spectacular than from Annot.... read more

Rien ne vous fera palpiter le coeur : ni les pourcentages, ni les paysages.
Et puis, c’est un peu long.
De nombreux tronçons dans la forêt.
Une bonne route raisonnablement fréquentée.
La Colle Saint Michel est une petite station de ski de fond et de chiens de traîneaux.
Et effectivement, on pourrait s’imaginer dans le Jura.
Là encore, c’est davantage une étape de transition et tant mieux parce que la descente vers Colmars est plutôt belle. Les paysages sont ciselés et nettement plus spectaculaires que depuis Annot.
