4.0 by dwellekeThis is an automatic translation, the original language is: Dutch.For much of the climb, you have a beautiful view of the mountains across the valley. Traffic isn’t too bad (at least in the evening…) and the road surface is in good condition almost everywhere. During my climb, however, the second-to-last two kilometers were covered with gravel due to roadwork. There was also a kilometer of gravel on the descent toward Faverges.

Tijdens een groot deel van de klim heb je mooi zicht op de bergen aan de overkant van het dal. Het verkeer valt goed mee (‘s avonds toch…) en wegdek is nagenoeg overal in goede staat. Bij mijn beklimming waren de twee voorlaatste kilometers wel bedekt met kiezeltjes door werken aan de weg. Ook in de afdaling richting Faverges was er een kilometer met kiezels. Opgelet dus aan iedereen die hier afdaalt, het ligt er gevaarlijk bij!
The Col de Tamié is a fine and not too difficult climb. At 10 kilometres, the distance is manageable. The percentages are constantly around 6 to 7％. The road surface is a typical French patchwork with stuck pieces of asphalt. It all bumps a bit. There is some traffic as it is a through road, but I did not find it disturbing. At the top you will find a little fountain with lovely cool water.
De Col de Tamié is een prima en niet al te moeilijke klim. Met 10 kilometer is de afstand goed te overzien. De percentages liggen constant rond de 6 a 7％. Het wegdek is een typisch Franse lappendeken met geplakte stukken asfalt. Het hobbelt allemaal wat. Er is wat verkeer omdat het een doorgaande weg is, maar ik vond het niet storend. Op de top vind je een fonteintje met heerlijk koel water.
Nice road and nice climb. Little traffic. South facing, with little shade, it can be very hot, bring water.
