The last 700 metres are on a gravel track of varying condition. At times, it's clearly not passable on a road bike.
Les 700 derniers mètres s'effectuent sur une piste de cailloux dont l'état est variable. Parfois, ce n'est clairement pas praticable en vélo de route.

La montée est sympa. Elle se fait sur une toute petite route goudronnée jusqu’à la ferme où la route va se transformer en un chantier de pierres. Je vous conseille de ne pas prendre votre plus beau vélo pour cette montée sinon vous allez le regretter.
