Nice climb, fairly even. Meet some wild animals on the way. 2km before the end is a kind of restaurant/hostel. From there, the road gets really bad. I went back after a few 100m because I didn't want to get a flat tire.

Leuke klim, redelijk gelijkmatig. Kom wat wilde dieren tegen onder weg. 2km voor het einde is een soort restaurant/ herberg. Vanaf daar wordt de weg wel echt slecht. Ben na een paar 100m teruggegaan omdat ik niet lek wilde rijden.

Lovely car-free climb. Had a 'encounter'with a big barking and fortunately not biting dog. Only downside for me was the approach route over the busy D900. Fortunately, most French people keep enough distance when overtaking.

Heerlijke autoluwe klim. Had nog wel een 'ontmoeting' met een grote blaffende en gelukkig niet bijtende loslopende hond. Enige minpuntje voor mij was de aanrijroute over de drukke D900. Gelukkig houden de meeste Fransozen voldoende afstand bij het inhalen.

Nice even climb through beautiful landscape with views. We were unpleasantly surprised by a barrier about 1 km from the summit. We were not allowed to enter the last part to the radio mast. The quality of the road surface was also starting to deteriorate. I would advise to ride up to the top of the Col d'Ouilliat and then call it a day.

Mooie gelijkmatige beklimming door prachtig landschap met vergezichten. We werden wel onaangenaam verrast door een slagboom op ongeveer 1 km van de top. We mochten het laatste stuk naar de radiomast niet betreden. De kwaliteit van het wegdek begon inmiddels ook minder te worden. Ik zou adviseren om tot de top van de Col d’Ouilliat te rijden en het dan voor gezien te houden.
