Really nice climb. Roads, landscapes, bends, it's all there. A Pyrenean must.

Long climb only the last 2,5 km are really difficult. Usually there is little traffic which makes it pleasant to cycle.

Good climb to get into. It really starts just before the village of Portet d'Aspet itself. After the village it gets pretty tough, but then the end is already in sight.
