nice climb, nowhere really steep. reasonable rise especially at the start, then it flattens out until the last kilometre. little traffic and nice view of the Rocher de Dabo

leuke klim, nergens echt steil. vooral aan het begin redelijke stijging, daarna vlakt het af tot aan de laatste kilometer. weinig verkeer en mooi uitzicht op de Rocher de Dabo
