A long climb, but not a steep, steady one. You just have to find a rhythm and keep it to overcome this difficulty. I thought there would be traffic, but in the end there wasn't. A must-do.

Môtée longue mais pas raide et régulière. Î suffit de trouver un rythme et de le garder pour surmonter cette difficulté. Je pensais qu’il y aurait de circulation mais finalement non. A faire absolument.
