This side is much prettier and more pleasant than the other, which winds between the houses. Pretty rocks and trees bent by the wind. Very short climb, clean road, gentle gradients. Well, in my case, it was the road to the campsite at Riola farm.... read more

Well, in my case, it was the road to the campsite at Riola farm.

Ce « versant » est bien plus mignon et plaisant que l’autre qui serpente entre les maisons. Jolis rochers et arbres ployés par le vent. Ascension très courte, route propre, pourcentages doux.
Bon, dans mon cas, c’était la route pour le camping de la ferme de Riola.
