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.

Belle route et belle montée. Peu de traffic. Exposé plein Sud, avec peu d’ombre, il peut faire très chaud, prévoir de l’eau.
