The climb really starts at the cemetery (where La Mère Denis is buried). The announced percentages are correct. The twists and turns at the top have a mountainous feel to them. The road then changes to Pierrefitte-en-Auge, a very beautiful village typical of the Pays d'Auge. Be careful when descending to the Auberge des Deux Tonneaux, there is no view, and often cars parked in the blind bend do not see what is coming when they start.
La côte commence réellement au niveau du cimetière (où est enterrée La Mère Denis). Les pourcentages annoncés sont correctes. Les lacets sur le haut ont un petit côté “montagne”. La route bascule ensuite sur Pierrefitte-en-Auge, très beau village typique du Pays d'Auge. Attention en descendant au niveau de l'Auberge des Deux Tonneaux, pas de visi, et souvent des voitures garées dans le virage aveugle, qui lorsqu'elles démarrent ne voient pas ce qui arrive.
The climb starts fairly flat after which you pass the pretty village of Saint-Hymer. After the village, the road leads into the forest and the gradients go up. However, it never gets too steep. Nice climb for cycling
De klim begint vrij vlak waarna je het mooie dorpje Saint-Hymer passeert. Na het dorpje loopt de weg het bos in en gaan de steigingspercentages omhoog. Het wordt echter nooit te steil. Mooi klim om te fietsen
