Phenomenal! Ultra intense. A short rest zone and off we go again. I found this climb quite tough. The undergrowth is beautiful. The road is littered with bits of wood, tree leaves and gravel. I had a puncture at the top. At the top, La Caleuche, an uninteresting abandoned farm. Nobody on this road. I just loved it!

Phénoménal ! Ultra intense. Une petite zone de repos et c’est reparti. J’ai trouvé cette ascension bien corsée. Les sous bois sont beaux. La route est jonchée de petits morceaux de bois, de feuilles d’arbres et de gravillons. Attention en descente. J’ai crevé en haut. En haut, la Caleuche, une ferme abandonnée sans intérêt. Personne sur cette route. J’ai adoré ! Je vais la refaire par Fresse. Oui, vraiment, n’hésitez pas !

I did this climb to get back to the camp site after the col de Chevreres without really looking at the gradients. It was a big disappointment. The start is steep but not too bad. The last part is deadly. It kept on going up. Lightest gear and keep pedalling with maximum heart rate. An additional disadvantage were the fallen pine needles on the road. This made it impossible to get out of the saddle.
The last bit to the top we decided to skip. Along the way not much view through the trees. At the top, at the bend in the road, there is a dog barking at you to get to the top, but then you have a last steep stretch straight ahead.
Only do it if you are looking for a real challenge.
Be careful in the descent (both ways)

Deze klim gedaan om terug te komen op de camping na de col de Chevreres zonder echt naar de stijgingspercentages te kijken. Dat viel flink tegen. Het begin is steil maar nog wel door te komen. Het laatste stuk is dodelijk. Het bleef maar stijgen. Lichtste verzet en door blijven trappen met max hartslag. Bijkomend nadeel waren de gevallen dennennaalden waar het wegdek vol mee lag. Hierdoor kon je niet uit het zadel komen.
Laatste stukje naar de top hebben we maar vanaf gezien. Onderweg weinig uitzicht door de bomen. Bovenin bij de slingerbocht wel een hond die je naar de top toe blaft, maar dan moet je nog een laatste steile strook rechtdoor.
Alleen doen als je een echte uitdaging zoekt.
Wees voorzichtig in de afdaling (beide kanten op)
