There’s a spring in the middle, just before the steepest sections. The last kilometre and a half is the hardest but also the quietest.... read more

The climb begins in Vevey, near the museum dedicated to Charlie Chaplin (Chaplin’s World); in fact, you pass right in front of it at the start. The climb is somewhat uneven.

La montée commence dans Vevey proche du musée dédié à Charlie Chaplin (Chaplin's World), d'ailleurs on y passe devant au début. La montée est quelque peu irrégulière. Il y a une source d'eau au milieu juste avant les pentes les plus raides. Le dernier kilomètre et demi est le plus dur mais le plus calme.
