Reasonable climb from Guillestre, which is doable for the experienced cyclist. Road surface is fine, had little traffic. At the top it takes a while to find the end point, which is unfortunately tied to a sports shop in a shopping street. You can refuel just fine in the village. Descent is always nice, not really very long stretches unfortunately. Because of the trees, you can't really catch a nice view.

Reasonable climb from Guillestre, which is doable for the experienced cyclist. Road surface is fine, had little traffic. At the top it takes a while to find the end point, which is unfortunately tied to a sports shop in a shopping street. You can refuel just fine in the village. Descent is always nice, not really very long stretches unfortunately. Because of the trees, you can't really catch a nice view. Anyway, nice climb also thanks to the curves, which have been given names of famous cyclists. You can plan this climb nicely to do longer rides and climbs later in the holidays. I myself combined it with Champcella and Reotier, very nice area for cycling

Redelijke klim vanuit Guillestre, welke goed te doen is voor de geoefende fietser. Wegdek is prima, weinig verkeer gehad. Boven is het even zoeken naar het eindpunt, deze is helaas vastgezet aan een sportwinkel in een winkelstraat. Je kan in het dorp even prima bijtanken. Afdaling is altijd lekker, niet echt hele lange stukken helaas. Door de bomen kun je niet echt een mooi uitzicht pakken. Maar goed, leuke klim ook dankzij de bochten, die namen hebben gekregen van bekende wielrenners. Je kan deze klim mooi inplannen om later in de vakantie langere ritten en beklimmingen te doen. Zelf heb ik hem gecombineerd met Champcella en Reotier, erg mooi gebied om te fietsen

The best way to climb to Risoul. The first part of the climb is quiet and scenically beautiful. you climb through pretty hamlets and along a narrow road before ending up on Risoul's monotonous road. The recommendation is actually to go straight after that too :-) and take the steep variant!

De mooiste manier om naar Risoul te klimmen. Het eerste deel van de klim is rustig en landschappelijk mooi. je klimt door mooie gehuchtjes en over een smalle weg voordat je op de monotone weg van Risoul terecht komt. De aanrader is eigenlijk om daarna ook rechtdoor te gaan :-) en de steile variant te nemen!
