A beautiful climb inside the forest of the Foret Domaniale de Lucéram, with moderate gradient and easily pedaled. You get there by starting from L'Escarène after riding 11 km of the ascent to Col de Turini, including the challenging sections of the hairpin bends after Luceram: this makes it more satisfying for a climber and even more appreciable that there are no cars and the slopes are gentle. Descent with breathtaking views (watch out for tight hairpin bends): at the junction with D2204... read more

A beautiful climb inside the forest of the Foret Domaniale de Lucéram, with moderate gradient and easily pedaled. You get there by starting from L'Escarène after riding 11 km of the ascent to Col de Turini, including the challenging sections of the hairpin bends after Luceram: this makes it more satisfying for a climber and even more appreciable that there are no cars and the slopes are gentle. Descent with breathtaking views (watch out for tight hairpin bends): at the junction with D2204 I recommend turning left and going up the last km of the Col de Braus just for a photo and a coffee if the Buvette is open, then turning back and closing the loop at L'Escarène.

Una bella salita all'interno del bosco della Foret Domaniale de Lucéram, con pendenza contenuta e facilmente pedalabile. Ci si arriva partendo da L'Escarène dopo aver percorso 11 km della salita verso il Col de Turini, compresi i tratti impegnativi dei tornanti dopo Luceram: questo rende il tutto più soddisfacente per uno scalatore e ancora più apprezzabile che non ci siano auto e le pendenze siano dolci. Discesa con viste mozzafiato (attenzione ai tornanti stretti): al bivio con D2204 consiglio di girare a sinistra e risalire l'ultimo km del Col de Braus giusto per una foto e un caffè se la Buvette è aperta, per poi tornare indietro e chiudere l'anello a L'Escarène.
