The Mont Dauphin is a pleasant climb, on a quiet road, with alternating passages. The climb starts with a long run of false flat.

The Mont Dauphin is a pleasant climb, on a quiet road, with alternating passages. The climb starts with a long run of false flat. On your left hand side you can already see the hill you will have to climb next. After you have passed the Chateau de Colembert and turn left the valley floor is over and the real climbing starts. When the climb turns right you will again see the castle of Colembert on your right hand, but now far below. The climb is steep at this point. Then the views disappear and you enter the forest. With a long forest turn to the left you arrive at the first 'top' of the climb. Then follows a small downward curve, so you with speed to the last small upward curve begins.

De Mont Dauphin is een aangename klim, op een rustige weg, met daarbij wisselende passages. De beklimming start met een lange aanloop van valsplat. Aan de linkerkant zie je ondertussen de heuvel al liggen waar je zodadelijk nog omhoog moet. Nadat je het Chateau de Colembert gepasseerd bent en links afslaat is het valsplat voorbij en begint het echte klimmen. Wanneer de klim naar rechts afbuigt zie je aan je rechterhand opnieuw het kasteel van Colembert liggen, maar nu al ver in de diepte. De klim gaat op dat stuk stevig omhoog. Daarna verdwijnen de vergezichten en rijd je het bos in. Met een lange naar links draaiende bos kom je op de eerste 'top' van de klim. Dan volgt een klein knikje naar beneden, zodat je met snelheid aan het laatste kleine knikje omhoog begint.

Difficult climb on good road surface that ends in the middle of the forest. Quiet area with very little traffic.

Lastige klim op goed wegdek die eindigt midden in het bos. Rustige omgeving met zeer weinig verkeer.
