An interesting and pretty climb, the finish at Romeyere is reminiscent of the end of a stage in the Tour. At the top, there are two options: the Mont Noir, where you can continue to climb into each other (but the difficulty increases significantly) or continue straight on, but a long, unlit tunnel lies ahead, so bring headlamps.... read more

Montée intéressante et joli, l’arrivée à Romeyere fait pensée à une fin d’étape du tour. En haut, d’eux possibilité, le mont noir pour continuer à se rentrer dedans (mais la difficulté s’accroît sensiblement) ou continuer tout droit, mais un long tunnel non éclairer s’annonce, prévoir les frontales.

A very beautiful ascent in two distinct parts: first the lower part of the Gorges de la Bourne, vertiginous, spectacular and very busy (peak hours to be avoided), then, from the Balme, the champêtreval de Rencurel, much quieter and very pleasant to walk.

Once at the Col de Romeyère, you can extend the climb by about five kilometres to the Col du Mont Noir in the Coulmes forest, but the road is generally in worse condition.

Très belle ascension en deux parties bien distinctes : d'abord la partie inférieure des Gorges de la Bourne, vertigineuse, spectaculaire et très fréquentée (heures de pointe à éviter), puis, à partir de la Balme, leval de Rencurel, champêtre, beaucoup plus tranquille et très agréable à parcourir.

Une fois au col de Romeyère, on peut prolonger l'ascension de cinq kilomètres environ jusqu'au col du Mont Noir dans la forêt des Coulmes, mais la route est généralement en moins bon état.
