The tarmac is excellent from Saint-Jacques to the summit. The first part up to the junction for Le Lioran is gentle but very busy, with lots of cars speeding past. Not a pleasant section at all. After this left-hand bend, the slope remains very accessible and the traffic is much calmer.... read more

Le bitume est excellent de Saint-Jacques jusqu'au sommet. La première partie jusqu'à la bifurcation vers le Lioran est douce mais très fréquentée, avec beaucoup de voitures qui roulent vite et passent près. Une partie pas du tout agréable. Après ce virage à gauche, la pente reste très accessible et le trafic est beaucoup plus calme.

Good climb and can be climbed at a good pace, the percentages are not too high and the road surface is also doable. Was there 2024 at the Tour de France, so don't know what the traffic situation is like normally. Wide roads and a good tret, you get up well.

Goede klim en met een goed tempo op te klimmen, de percentages zijn niet te hoog en ook het wegdek is goed te doen. Was er 2024 bij de Tour de France bij, dus weet niet hoe de verkeerssituatie er normaal uitziet. Brede wegen en een goeie tret, je komt goed boven.
