What a shame, that's how to sum up this climb. In fact I think it's the most beautiful climb to do in the area with its 100m round climb and its high and regular percentage. 10% on average small peak close to 15%, but still very steep. Very pleasant little road, well tarmacked... but when you get to the top the only option is to turn around (if you're on a road bike) as the road becomes a rocky path. to continue without fear you need a gravel or mountain bike.

Otherwise go back down the same way you came.

It's worth doing though.

Quel dommage, voila comment résumer cette montée. En effet je pense que c'est la plus belle à faire dans le coin avec ses 100m de dénivelé tout rond et son pourcentage elevé et régulier. 10% en moyenne petite pointe proche des 15%, mais toujours très raide. Petite route très agréable et bien goudronnée... mais arrivée en haut la seule option est de faire demi tour (si on est en vélo de route) car la route devient un chemin de cailloux. pour continuer sans crainte il faut un gravel ou VTT. Sinon redescendre par là où on est arrivé.

A faire néanmoins car elle vaut le coup.
