Probably the hardest climb in the Queyras (excluding the two behemoths that are the Izoard and the Agnel but which benefit from much more practicable roads and with better yields...)! The 3rd kilometer is the hardest, after the farm and having crossed the Torrent de Péas (12% of average during 1 km)
Lots of changes of slope, narrow road (be careful with cars), nice view on the Pointe de la Selle and Combe Arnaud once arrived at Souliers
I recommend it! To do at all costs if you are in the Queyras and want to have a good time...
The departure from Château-Queyras is indeed a bit complicated (road that goes to the left indicated Souliers after the castle coming from Guillestre) then regular climb in the gorges before starting the hardest part mentioned above

Sans doute la montée la plus dure du Queyras (exclusion faite des deux mastodontes que sont l'Izoard et l'Agnel mais qui bénéficient de routes bien plus praticables et aux meilleurs rendements...) ! Le 3ème kilomètre est le plus dur, après la ferme et avoir traversé le Torrent de Péas (12% de moyenne pendant 1 km)
Beaucoup de changements d'inclinaison de la pente, route étroite (attention aux voitures), joli point de vue sur la Pointe de la Selle et la Combe Arnaud une fois arrivé à Souliers
Je recommande ! À faire à tout prix si vous êtes de passage dans le Queyras et désireux d'en baver un peu...
Le départ à Château-Queyras est en effet un peu compliqué (route qui part vers la gauche indiqué Souliers après le château en venant de Guillestre) puis montée régulière ensuite dans les gorges avant d'entamer la partie la plus dure citée précédemment

Interesting detour from the D-road to make extra altitude metres.
This is a round trip.
Pay attention to where he starts: between the traffic lights that regulate the 'one-way traffic'. Directly at the second traffic light, at least when you come from the exit to d'Izoard.
It will of course be true that it is a 3rd category climb, but felt to me like a 2nd category. Really heavy and long.
Once at the top, you meet a lovely agricultural village. Opportunities to fill the water bottle. Beautiful church too.

Interessant uitstapje van de D-weg om extra hoogtemeters te maken.
Betreft een heen-en-weertje.
Let goed op waar hij begint: tussen de stoplichten die het 'eenrichtingsverkeer' reguleren. Direct bij het tweede stoplicht, althans wanneer je van de afslag naar d'Izoard komt.
Het zal uiteraard kloppen dat het een klim van de 3e categorie is, maar voelde voor mij als een 2e categorie. Echt zwaar en lang.
Eenmaal boven aangekomen, ontmoet je een lieflijk agrarisch dorp. Mogelijkheden om de bidon te vullen. Prachtig kerkje ook.
