The descent to Bauduen is also quite fun.

A faire pour rejoindre le lac St Croix de plus la descente vers Bauduen est assez fun

Climbed 30 July 2021. Quite a lot of traffic on this link road to the Gorges du Verdon in summer. But a nice training climb. Round trip : TourTour - Aups- Verignon - Tourtour is almost 40 km. Good roads. Nice round trip. Beautiful panorama's and nature of the Haut Var. Aups is the truffle capital! Also very pleasant on market days.

Beklommen 30 juli 2021. In de zomer aardig wat verkeer op deze verbindingsweg naar de Gorges du Verdon. Maar een mooie trainingsklim. Rondje : TourTour - Aups- Verignon - Tourtour is bijna 40 km. Goede wegen. Leuk rondje. Mooie panorama's en de natuur van de Haut Var. Aups is de truffel hoofdstad! Ook op marktdagen zeer gezellig.

The road is quite busy and the climb itself not much fun. Really a climb you do to reach another area. When you get to the top, the road to Ampus is nice and straight and you can take the spectacular climb of Les Salles du verdon.

De weg is behoorlijk druk en de klim zelf ook weinig soeps. Echt een klim die je doet om een ander gebied te bereiken. Wanneer je boven komt is de weg rechtsaf richting Ampus fraai rechtdoor kan je de spectaculaire klim van Les Salles du verdon pakken
