It's important to know what you're doing so you don't miss anything. Take the small path on the left as you leave Presles, go around the 1st barrier after a steep climb, then take the first on the left, going slightly downhill and finally, after a second barrier, turn right for the last steep climb. This is known locally as the côte de Pierre turquaise.
Il faut connaitre pour ne rien rater. Prendre le petit chemin à gauche en quittant Presles, franchir la 1ère barrière en la contournant après un bon raidard, puis prendre la première à gauche, en enquillant une légère descente et enfin, après une seconde barrière, prendre à droite pour le dernier raidard. Dans le coin, on l'appelle la côte de Pierre turquaise.
Also pleasant from Presles. You have to do the 3 short climbs. Some short, hard sections. The small road leads to a pond. It's not always easy to find the little path that leads up into the forest, and at the end of the route, you should probably turn left to avoid the last steep incline in the forest. I went straight on. It's a good climb, especially in the mud...
Agréable aussi depuis Presles. Il faut faire les 3 petites côtes. Quelques courts passages sévères. La petite route se prend au niveau d’un étang. Pas forcément facile à localiser ce petit chemin qui monte vers la forêt, de même, à la fin du parcours, il faut sans doute aller prendre à gauche pour éviter le dernier raidillon dans la forêt. Je suis passé tout droit. Ça grimpe bien surtout dans la boue…
