Autant, il est facile et clair de localiser le début de cette montée (ça grimpe brutalement !) autant, la fin est un mystère !
Du coup, j’ai continué longtemps d’abord sur une route de l’Office National des Forêts, puis sur une piste forestière, toujours à la recherche des Chavannes du dessus ! Verdict : j’étais très au dessus des Chavannes du dessus.
Sinon, cette route est bonne et calme. Elle ne fait pas semblant de grimper. La descente est assez formidable surtout si on vient de tout en haut.
