A beautiful and fun climb. You start in the village of Axat and after a tough stretch you arrive in the village of Artigues. When you leave the village you come to a steeper stretch where the road surface is not too good either. After about'4 kilometres you come to a better running stretch towards the village of Le Clat. Now it is just a short stretch to the top where it never really gets very steep anymore. Definitely worth a try if you are there.... read more

Een mooie en leuke klim. Je start in het dorpje Axat en na een pittig stukje kom je in het dorp artigues. Wanneer je het dorp uitrijd kom je op een steiler stuk waar het wegdek ook niet al te best is. Na zo'n kilometer of 4 kom je op een beter lopend stuk richting het dorp Le Clat. Nu is het nog een klein stukje naar de top waar het nooit echt heel steil meer word. Zeker eens de moeite als je er bent.
