Perhaps a bit busy, but the road surface is usually excellent. And the roads are wide enough that it’s not dangerous. And actually, it’s on a wide road. The busier, the better, because the cars can’t drive very fast anyway. I thought it was a lovely climb, although I often had a strong headwind, so it was perhaps a bit of an unlucky day for me.

I thought it was a lovely climb, although I often had a strong headwind, so it was perhaps a bit of an unlucky day for me. Personally, I’d start this climb at Portée Puymorens, but then again, it does start to climb quite a bit from Ax.
In any case, you can enjoy some stunning views.
And if you fancy it, you’ll be going high!
I went out of my way for it, so for me it was well worth the detour.
Hoe komt dat dit nog niet gereviewd is? Dit is toch een fijne col. Misschien een beetje druk, maar het wegdek is doorgaans top. En de wegen zijn breed genoeg om het niet gevaarlijk te maken. En eigenlijk op een brede baan. Hoe drukker hoe beter, want de auto's kunnen toch niets snel rijden.
Ik vond het een fijne klim, hoewel ik vaak stevige tegenwind had, dus het was misschien een beetje een pech dag voor me. Ik zou persoonlijk deze klim starten op Portée Puymorens, maar ja, vanuit Ax loopt het al wel wat op.
Je kan in ieder geval genieten van prachtige vergezichten.
En als je wil. Je gaat hoog!
Ik heb er een omweg voor gedaan, dus voor mij was ie een omweg waard.
