Si les gros pourcentages ne vous effraient pas, cela peut être un bon moyen d'accéder à Vizille sans passer par la N85. La route s'enfonce avec une forte pente dans la forêt en sortie du vieux Champ sur Drac. La première partie est très raide, cela s'adoucit en sortant du bois mais attention, la route se cabre à nouveau en entrant dans le hameau de St Sauveur. Attention à la descente, qui nécessite en outre de reprendre un petit bout de nationale avant de rejoindre Vizille.
The climb is not very steady.
The first third passes through a hamlet, then the road is in the shade.
The final section is steep.
The state of the road is fairly average; it's OK on the way up but dangerous on the way down.
La montée n'est pas très régulière.
Le premier tiers traverse un hameau, puis la route est à l'ombre.
Le final est raide
L'état de la route est assez moyen, c'est ok à la montée mais dangereux à la descente
A pleasant experience. Much of the short climb is spent in the forest. The climb is uneven throughout. The last few metres are quite tough. The road is good and free of traffic. At the top there is a fountain with drinking water. Nothing memorable, but why not! On the other side, on the way back down, the views are quite beautiful.
Agréable. On passe une bonne partie de la courte ascension dans la forêt. La montée est inégale tout le long. Les derniers mètres sont assez sévères. La route est bonne et sans circulation. En haut une fontaine avec de l’eau potable. Rien de mémorable mais pourquoi pas ! De l’autre côté, en redescendant, les vues sont assez belles.
