Petit Beauvais is much nicer than its brother Grand Beauvais. A quiet little road that starts in front of the church. Make no mistake. Take the street on the right. The one on the left is the rue de roule-cul... Well, you can do what you like. Further up, turn sharp right towards the "belvedere", an old restored mill. The climb takes you through the vineyards of the Layon hillsides. The view of the surrounding area from the mill is gentle, as is the climb.... read more

This climb is really interesting, especially for the region, the last bit after the hairpin bend is the hardest.

Cette montée est vraiment interessante, particulierement pour la région, le dernier bout après le virage en lacet est le plus dur

Superb climb. Good gradients at the end and, above all, great views of the village and vineyards all the way up. You can even go to the belvedere on the way up. A must do!

Superbe montée. De bons pourcentages sur la fin et surtout une très belle vue sur le village et les vignes tout au long de la montée. Vous pouvez même vous rendre au belvédère en arrivant. A faire !

From the church in Chaudefonds, the slope is gentle at first, but as you turn right after the cemetery it becomes much steeper. Don't forget to go as far as the ruin of the mill, from which there is a lovely viewpoint.

A partir de l'église de Chaudefonds, la pente est d'abord assez douce, mais en tournant à droite après le cimetière c'est beaucoup plus raide. Ne pas oublier d'aller jusqu'à la ruine de moulin d'où on a un joli point de vue.

Well, you can do what you like.

Further up, turn sharp right towards the "belvedere", an old restored mill. The climb takes you through the vineyards of the Layon hillsides. The view of the surrounding area from the mill is gentle, as is the climb.

Ce Petit Beauvais est nettement plus sympa que son frère le Grand Beauvais.
Une petite route calme qui démarre devant l’église. Ne vous trompez pas. Prenez la rue de droite. Celle de gauche, c’est la rue de roule-cul…
Enfin, vous ferez bien ce que vous voulez.

Plus haut, il vous faudra tourner fort à droite en direction du « belvédère », un ancien moulin restauré. L’ascension s’effectue à travers les vignes des coteaux du Layon.
La vue sur les environs depuis le moulin est douce tout comme la montée.
