Its official name is Côte de Montmassue. I live there and so I take it very often. It's one of the longest in the area, so it's worth it. It's a nice progressive route. Beware that cars sometimes drive fast on the bends. Keep to the right!... read more

De son nom officiel la Côte de Montmassue. J'habite là et je la prend donc très souvent. C'est l'une des plus longues du coin, donc elle vaut le coup. Belle progressivité. Attention les voitures roulent parfois vite dans les lacets. Tenez votre droite !

Not a super tough climb but the fact that it starts quite easy and gradually gets steeper gives you the impression that it takes a long time. However, the attraction of the climb is the beautiful scenery you ride through. Recommended

Geen super zware klim maar door dat het vrij gemakkelijk begint en geleidelijk steiler wordt krijg je de indruk dat het lang duurt. De aantrekking van de klim is echter het mooi landschap waar je doorheen rijdt. Aanrader
