I can't understand why Climbfinder considers this climb and its twin to be the 1st and 3rd hardest in Normandy. Many climbs are harder, such as the Mure du Clécy or the Côte Albert Lambert at La Bouille. The climb is certainly interminable and includes a ramp, with sections at over 15％. But the rest, apart from a gentle climb towards the end, is flat. However, this climb is worth the diversions, as it has a really nice setting, you're in the middle of the forest, there are no cars ... read more

I can't understand why Climbfinder considers this climb and its twin to be the 1st and 3rd hardest in Normandy. Many climbs are harder, such as the Mure du Clécy or the Côte Albert Lambert at La Bouille. The climb is certainly interminable and includes a ramp, with sections at over 15％. But the rest, apart from a gentle climb towards the end, is flat. However, this climb is worth the diversions, as it has a really nice setting, you're in the middle of the forest, there are no cars (except on the last stretch) and all you can hear is birdsong. What's more, you can add a final ramp leading up to the Signale d'Ecouves, the highest point in the region.

Je n'arrive pas à comprendre pourquoi Climbfinder considère cette ascension et sa jumelle, comme les 1 et 3ème plus dure de Normandie. Nombreuse ascensions sont plus dure, comme le mure du Clécy ou côte Albert Lambert à la Bouille. L'ascension est certes interminable et comporte une rampe, avec des passages à plus de 15％. Mais, le reste, si ce n'est une douce remontée vers la fin, est du faux plat. Cependant, cette ascension vaux le détour, car elle a un cadre super sympa, on est au milieu de la forêt, il n'y a pas de voiture(sauf sur le dernier tronçon) et on entend que le chant des oiseaux. En plus on peut lui rajouter une dernière rampe qui mène au Signale d'Ecouves le point culminent de la région.
