A nice pass linking Orcival to Lac du Guery, which will be used by the Tour de France in 2023 during the Vulcania Issoire stage. It's tough from the start as you leave Orcival, then eases off as you climb towards the Roches Tuilière. Beautiful views on the second part before entering the forest.

Un col sympas qui permet de relier Orcival au lac du Guery emprunté par le Tour de France en 2023 lors de l etape Vulcania Issoire. Costaud des le début à la sortie d Orcival puis ca se calme jusqu a la montée vers les roches tuilière. Très belle vue sur la deuxième partie avant d entrer dans la forêt.

Nice slope, redone this year, in June (not my best climb with the pollens), but really nice slope with a nice view and a nice end in the forest when it's hot, The climb is on the other hand very irregular some be the slope, we start from Pont des Eaux by a medium slope, then a long flat before Orcival at the exit, from Orcival a wall at 9-10 rises to join the road to Rochefort;Orcival a wall at 9-10 rises to join the road to Rochefort, then becomes reasonable again, before a 1.5 km flat, then the final at 6-7% and after the crossroads at 2-3% where you pick up speed. At the top the Lac du Guéry is just the motivation to climb on Sunday mornings in spring with club mates.

Versant sympa, refait cette année, en juin (pas ma meilleure grimpée avec les pollens), mais versant vraiment sympa avec une belle vue et une fin dans la foret bien quand il fait chaud, La montée est par contre très irrégulière quelques soi le versant, on démarre de Pont des Eaux par une pente moyenne, puis un long replat avant Orcival à la sortie, d'Orcival un mur à 9-10 se dresse pour rejoindre la route qui va à Rochefort, puis à redevient raisonnable, avant un replat de 1 km et demi, puis le final à 6-7% et après le croisement à 2-3% où on reprend de la vitesse. En haut le Lac du Guéry est juste la motivation pour monter les dimanche matin du printemps avec les copains du club.
