Starting from Larrau, the first 5 km go relatively well, although even if the average % are low, there are several steep passages. The last 5 km are very difficult. Virtually nothing below 10% and constantly exposed to the sun. It climbs hard and the gradient doesn't soften when you look higher up. The last km is "easier" although there is a small wall just before the finish. The scenery is magnificent on the way up, but not at the summit.... read more

Début depuis Larrau, les 5 premiers km se font relativement bien, quoi que même si les % moyens sont bas, il y a plusieurs passages raides. Les 5 derniers km sont très difficile. Pratiquement rien en bas de 10% et constamment exposé au soleil. Ça grimpe fort et la pente ne s’adoucit pas lorsqu’on regarde plus haut. Le dernier km est plus « facile » quoi qu’il y a un petit mur juste avant l’arrivée. Les paysages sont magnifiques lors de la montée, mais pas au sommet.
