Of the two côtes de Paron, this is the more serious. The path is very narrow and in decent condition. The gradients are quite steep, but it's very short. Long enough to get to the top out of breath if you push hard on the pedals. You have to go around two barriers that prevent cars from using this nice little wall.
Le département de l’Yonne n’est pas le plus pentu de France. Mais, Sens propose 3 montées.
De ces deux côtes de Paron, celle-ci est la plus sérieuse. Le chemin est très étroit et dans un état convenable. Les pourcentages sont assez sévères, mais c’est très court. Suffisamment intense pour arriver en haut essoufflé si l’on force sur les pédales. Il faut contourner deux barrières qui empêchent les voitures d’emprunter ce sympathique petit mur.
