Just a nice climb to cycle up if you like not too steep climbs (5.1 per cent average). Indeed a fairly busy road with good tarmac. I find Corsican drivers friendly and patient with cyclists. They are happy to stay behind you for a while if visibility to overtake is lacking. At the top, a monument about the war dead of France's African colonies (unfortunately forgot to take a photo) from where you have a great view.

Just a nice climb to cycle up if you like not too steep climbs (5.1 per cent average). Indeed a fairly busy road with good tarmac. I find Corsican drivers friendly and patient with cyclists.

At the top, a monument about the war dead of France's African colonies (unfortunately forgot to take a photo) from where you have a great view. This col from Saint Florent in not only slightly harder but also prettier in my opinion.

Gewoon een fijne klim om op te fietsen als je houdt van niet al te steile klimmen (5.1 procent gemiddeld). Inderdaad een vrij drukke weg met goed asfalt. Ik vind de Corsicaanse chauffeurs vriendelijk en geduldig met fietsers. Ze blijven gerust een tijdje achter je rijden als zicht om in te halen ontbreekt. Bovenop de top een monument over de oorlogsslachtoffers van de Afrikaanse koloniën van Frankrijk (helaas vergeten een foto te maken) vanwaar je een prachtig uitzicht hebt. Deze col vanaf Saint Florent in niet alleen ietsje zwaarder maar ook mooier vind ik.

Fairly busy through route but wide enough. Mostly shaded in the afternoon. Steep stretch after a roundabout halfway but flattens out after that.

Redelijk drukke doorgaande route maar breed genoeg. In de middag grotendeels in de schaduw. Steil stuk na een rotonde halverwege maar vlakt daarna af.

Beautiful road, quite heavy traffic, unobstructed view of the plain of Bastia and the islands. Possible descent to Patrimonio.

Belle route, circulation assez dense, vue imprenable sur la plaine de Bastia et les îles. Descente possible sur patrimonio.

Climb is good, good road, quite some traffic in the summer. The best is still the view when you're up, to both sides of the island.

Klim is goed te doen, prima wegdek, wel redelijk wat autoverkeer in de zomer. Het mooist is toch het uitzicht als je boven bent, naar beide kanten van het eiland.
