Climbed on 10-08-2023 from the other side; after descending the Col de Bleine (D5) started at junction D5/D10. Then it's basically a false flat to the col with stunning views. Beware: when the weather is warm, you ride continuously in the (hot) sun. Highly recommended just for the views! Then an attractive descent to Le Moulin. In Moulin you can fill your water bottle again!... read more

Beklommen op 10-08-2023 vanaf de andere zijde; na de afdaling van de Col de Bleine (D5) gestart op kruising D5/D10. Dan is het eigenlijk een vals plat naar de col met schitterende uitzichten. Pas op: bij warm weer rijdt je continue in de (hete) zon. Een absolute aanrader alleen al voor de uitzichten! Daarna een aantrekkelijke afdaling naar Le Moulin. In Moulin kun je de bidon weer vullen!
