The climb to Herbeys is on a very good, wide road.
After that, the slope gets steeper and the road becomes narrower, offering no relief until you reach the summit.
Virtually no traffic
The Fort des 4 seigneurs cannot be visited, the road is a dead end and you have to turn around to go back down to Giere.
La montée jusqu'à Herbeys se fait sur une route en très bon état et bien large.
Après la pente se durcit et la chaussée est plus étroite, n'offrant aucun repi jusqu'au sommet.
Absence quasi totale de circulation
Le fort des 4 seigneurs ne se visite pas, la route est une impasse, il faut faire demi-tour pour redescendre sur Giere
The contrast between the access to Tavernolles, on a very busy road, and the climb itself, very quiet, is indeed particularly striking. It is a pity that at the top the Fort des Quatre Seigneurs is inaccessible to visitors...
Le contraste entre l'accès à Tavernolles, sur une route très fréquentée, et la montée proprement dite, très calme, est en effet particulièrement frappant. Quel dommage qu'au sommet le fort des Quatre Seigneurs soit inaccessible à la visite…
Unknown, heavy, beautiful. That is how I summarize this climb. Actually you start from the main road and ride up through the village until the last kilometers. Narrow road but little traffic. Unfortunately, the top is nothing because it is private property and closed. So enjoy the beautiful views while climbing!
Onbekend, zwaar, mooi. Zo vat ik deze klim samen. Je vertrekt eigenlijk vanaf de grote baan en rijdt tot de laatste kilometers door het dorp omhoog. Smalle baan maar weinig verkeer. Spijtig genoeg stelt de top helemaal niets voor omdat deze privébezit en afgesloten is. Vooral tijdens het klimmen van de mooie uitzichten genieten dus!
The climb may last 7 km, but the high gradients literally destroy your legs and you are almost at a standstill! But it makes the climb 2x more satisfying!
la montée a beau durer 7 bornes, les hauts pourcentages te détruisent littéralement les jambes et on est presque à l'arrêt ! Mais bon, ça rend l'ascension 2x plus satisfaisante !
