Not a fantastic road surface, but doable. Route is insanely beautiful. In summer, it's the heat that will kill you rather than the gradients. No reason to cycle very fast here, the area is far too beautiful for that. Absolutely recommended. Continuing on to the Pic de l'Ours on a road bike seems unwise to me.

Geen fantastisch wegdek, maar wel goed te doen. Route is waanzinnig mooi. In de zomer is het eerder de hitte die je gaat nekken dan de stijgingspercentages. Geen enkele reden hier heel hard te fietsen, daarvoor is het gebied veel te mooi. Absolute aanrader. Verder rijden naar de Pic de l'Ours op een racefiets lijkt me onverstandig.

Dun_Jay has described it well but perhaps for clarification: the last stretch from (the car park of) Col de Notre-Dame to Pic de l'Ours is a footpath, suitable for MTB/VTT, but not for road bikes.

Dun_Jay heeft het goed beschreven maar wellicht ter verduidelijking: het laatste stuk vanaf (de parkeerplaats van) Col de Notre-Dame naar Pic de l'Ours is een wandelpad, geschikt voor MTB/VTT, maar niet voor racefietsen.

Beautiful climb, though very bad road surface in places and large stones on the road. The first time I rode up it I had 2x punctures. The 3 times after that I had no more punctures, just be careful where you ride. The route up is partly one-way, and wonderfully quiet. You can go up by road bike, but you will have to turn around at the top because there is no tarmac road on the other side. You do, however, partly ride down another (again one-way) road. Be very careful here, as the road surface is very bad!

You cycle up to a car park, steer sharply left there and manoeuvre under the fence. Then you can cycle a bit further up to the weather station and to the real summit of the Pic de l'Ours. At the top, you have beautiful views and the climb is well worth it!

Prachtige klim, wel zeer slecht wegdek op plaatsen en grote stenen op de weg. De eerste keer dat ik hem op reed had ik 2x lek. De 3x daarna geen lekke banden meer gehad, gewoon even goed opletten waar je rijdt. De route omhoog is een stuk eenrichtingsverkeer, en heerlijk rustig. Je kunt met de racefiets naar boven, maar dan zul je boven moeten omdraaien omdat er aan de andere kant geen asfaltweg ligt. Wel rijdt je deels een andere (ook weer eenrichtingsweg) naar beneden. Let hier heel goed op, want het wegdek is zeer slecht!

Je fietst naar boven tot een parkeerplaats, daar scherp naar links sturen en onder het hek door manouvreren. Daarna kun je nog een stuk verder fietsen tot het weerstation en naar de echte top van de Pic de l'Ours. Boven heb je prachtige uitzichten en de klim is zeker de moeite waard!
