If you like peace and quiet this climb is for you. The further you climb the quieter it gets, almost no traffic only in the beginning. The climb is consistently around 7 per cent so good to do. The road surface is moderate but if you want to do this mountain do it from this side and descend via the other side because descending here is careful. Jewel? No the other side looked nicer.

The climb was gentle and pleasant, but without any particular flavour.
At times, I couldn't see much, as the mist and drizzle were so annoying.
The gradients were never steep.
The end is in the forest. Nobody on this road. At the top, a gantry marks the finish and beyond that, perhaps, a beautiful landscape that the mist hid from me.
3 stars for absolute peace and quiet.

Une montée douce et agréable, mais sans saveur particulière.
A la fois, je ne voyais pas grand chose, tant la brume et la bruine étaient gênantes.
Les pourcentages ne sont jamais violents.
La fin s’effectue en forêt. Personne sur cette route. Là haut, un portique qui matérialise l’arrivée et au-delà, peut-être, un beau paysage que la brume m’a caché.
3 étoiles pour le calme absolu.

Als je van rust en stilte houd is deze klim voor jou. Hoe verder je klim des te stiller word het, bijna geen verkeer alleen in het begin. De klim is constant rond de 7 procent dus goed te doen. Het wegdek is matig maar als je deze berg wilt doen doe hem van deze kant en daal via de andere kant want hier dalen is voorzichtig. Juweeltje? Nee de andere kant zag er mooier uit. En als je het bordje grand naves ziet ga dan naar links om te dalen anders klim je nog een km of 3 naar de top waar een restaurant is maar verder doodlopend.
