Very nice climb. Road surface is top, runs nicely and you mainly ride through a shady forest with occasional peeks through the trees. Few cars's encountered, at the end a nice meadow and then at the top you can continue to the Grand Ballon.... read more

Actually the easy part on the way to the grand ballon. Very nice and quiet road through the forest that climbs evenly though

Eigenlijk het makkelijke deel op weg naar de grand ballon. Wel heel mooie en rustige weg door het bos die gelijkmatig oploopt

Enjoyed it during this climb towards the Grand Ballon! Hardly encountered any other cyclists, beautiful among the forests and winding. At the end of this climb, you can choose to climb further towards the Grand Ballon or descend again towards Cernay or Willer-sur-Thur.

Genoten tijdens deze klim richting de Grand Ballon! Bijna geen andere fietser tegengekomen, mooi tussen de bossen en slingerachtig. Op het einde van deze klim kan je kiezen om verder te klimmen richting de Grand Ballon of weer af te dalen richting Cernay of Willer-sur-Thur.

A very easy and fun climb through the forest! Apart from the surface, which can be average at times, this climb is really enjoyable!

Montée dans la forêt très simple et amusante ! Hormis le revêtement qui peu être des fois moyens cette montée est vraiment agréable !

A short mountain road with a good surface and little traffic through the forest to the Col Amic, from where you can continue towards the Col du Grand Ballon.

Petit route de montagne avec un beau revêtement et avec peu de circulation qui traverse la forêt jusqu'au Col Amic, d'où on peut continuer vers les Col du Grand Ballon.

Very fun and pleasant climb - lots of curves, well protected by the trees, long runner, wooded area, good road surface - ideal for warming up before the final section to the Grand Ballon

Zeer leuke en aangename klim - veel bochten, goed beschermd door de bomen, lange loper, bosrijke omgeving, goed wegdek - ideaal om op te warmen voor het laatste gedeelte naar de Grand Ballon

Heel erg lekkere klim. Wegdek is top, loopt lekker en je rijdt voornamelijk door een schaduwrijk bos met zo af en toe een kijkje door de bomen. Weinig auto's tegengekomen, op het laatst een mooie weide en dan op de top kun je verder naar de Grand Ballon.
