The twists and turns are fantastic.

Petite route dans un état moyen mais très agréable tant elle est calme. Une zone frontalière un peu oubliée de tous. Là encore, les cicatrices de la tempête Alex sont saisissantes.
Les lacets sont formidables.
Il faut suivre le panneau « LIBRE ».
C’est court mais c’est sympa.
