I did not have this col on m'n list but had to cross it by car. Returned a few days later by bike. Very fine col. From La Bresse very fine cycling between pine trees and with regular hairpin turns. There is traffic but never bothers. Road surface pretty ok, slightly coarser tarmac though.
Ik had deze col niet op m'n lijstje staan maar moest er met de auto over. Enkele dagen later teruggekeerd met de fiets. Heel fijne col. Vanuit La Bresse hele fijn fietsen tussen de naaldbomen en met regelmatig een haarspeldbocht. Er is verkeer maar stoort nooit. Wegdek best ok, iets grover asfalt wel.
Why does this climb only have two and a half stars. Nice road surface, not crowded (except in rush hours). In full sun at first, then in shade. You can follow the track towards the top of col de bramont or turn left towards Le Markstein.
Hoezo heeft deze klim maar twee en een half sterren. Mooi wegdek, niet druk (behalve in de spitsuren). In het begin in de volle zon, daarna in de schaduw. Middenin de klim kan je links afslaan richting Le Markstein. Op de top kan je ook nog naar rechts richting de col de Virege.
This climb really does deserve more than two stars. Constant climbing, so good to find your own pace. Traffic is a bit busier, but not too bad. The other side is indeed more fun.
Deze klim verdient echt wel meer dan twee sterren. Constant klimmen, dus goed om je eigen tempo te vinden. Verkeer is iets drukker, maar valt best wel nog mee. De andere kant is inderdaad wel leuker.
No reviews on this site and no signs along the way with gradients. Then you do not expect a tough climb, but it was disappointing: steeper than the Bramont from Wildenstein.
Before the hairpin bend, you can see the road getting steeper. This is a foretaste of what you will face after the double hairpin. The 10％ mark is reached several times.
At three quarters of the way up, you can turn left via Rue Americains and continue on to the Routes des Crêtes. Or you can go straight down towards Wildenstein, where you have the choice between nice climbs like Le Markstein, d'Oderen and Grand Ballon.
Geen reviews op deze site en geen bordjes langs de weg met stijgingspercentages. Dan verwacht je geen pittige klim, maar daardoor viel het tegen: steiler dan de Bramont vanuit Wildenstein.
Voor de haarspeldbocht zie je de weg verderop steeds steiler worden. Dit is een voorproefje van wat je na de haarspeldbocht dubbel zo lang voor de kiezen krijgt. Een aantal keer wordt de 10％ aangetikt.
Op driekwart van de beklimming kan je linksaf via de Rue Americains doorklimmen naar de Routes des Crêtes. Of rechtdoor afdalen richting Wildenstein, waar je de keuze hebt uit mooie klimmen zoals Le Markstein, d’Oderen en Grand Ballon.
