A short climb with a lovely panoramic view of Belledonne. A very quiet road, with one poor section at the start, but otherwise very decent for a small local road. Despite a few steep sections, especially at the start, I didn't find it very difficult. It is better to go up this road to La Chapelle Blanche than down it.... read more

Petite montée qui offre une très jolie vue panoramique sur Belledonne. Route très calme, avec une portion de mauvaise qualité au début, mais sinon elle reste très correcte pour une petite route communale. Malgré quelques portions raides surtout le départ, je ne l'ai pas trouvé très difficile. Il est préférable de monter par cette route et de rejoindre La Chapelle Blanche que de la redescendre.

Quite a nice climb with a view of Belledonne, there are a few ramps but nothing too difficult, the road is not very busy.

Montée assez sympa avec vue sur Belledonne, il y a quelques rampes mais rien de bien difficile, la route est très peu fréquentée
