You turn into a dark green and cool forest and may immediately pull out your small leaf. Until the summit, you will need it. Fortunately, other road users are almost non-existent on this climb. In a village it pulls open with the summit back among the trees. You will find this alternation between forest and open stretches on many climbs here. In any case, the contrast with the busy roads in and around Gérardmer is great.
Je draait een donkergroen en koel bos in en mag meteen je kleine blad tevoorschijn halen. Tot de top zul je die wel nodig hebben. Gelukkig zijn andere weggebruikers op deze klim bijna non-existent. In een dorp trekt het open met de top weer tussen de bomen. Die afwisseling tussen bos en open stukken kom je hier op veel beklimmingen tegen. Het contrast met de drukke wegen in en rond Gérardmer is in ieder geval groot.
