The wall in rue de la Citadelle should not be underestimated, as it is very steep and the cobbled surface is beginning to deteriorate. On the other hand, the rest of the climb is much more accessible, especially the last part.... read more

The wall in rue de la Citadelle should not be underestimated, as it is very steep and the cobbled surface is beginning to deteriorate. On the other hand, the rest of the climb is much more accessible, especially the last part.

Le mur situé dans la rue de la Citadelle ne doit pas être sous-estimé, car il est très pentu et sa chaussée pavée commence à se dégrader. En revanche, le reste de la montée est nettement plus accessible, surtout sur sa dernière partie
