A short but intense climb. The steepest part is on a rough concrete footpath, with a small section on dirt, but still passable for road bikes. Otherwise, the majority of the climb is on good tarmac, with the same section of road as the rue de la colline.... read more

Côte courte mais intense. La partie la plus pentue se fait sur un chemin piétonnier en béton accidenté, avec une petite portion sur de la terre, mais reste praticable pour les vélos de route. Sinon, la majorité de la côte est sur du bon bitume.On rejoint a même portion de route que la rue de la colline.
