Not very interesting, very short, good for a liaison. On the other hand, the descent on the other side is great, with big curves, nice straights and good tarmac, there's plenty to enjoy!... read more

Pas de grand intérêt, très court, bien pour faire une liaison. Par contre la descente de l'autre côté est géniale, avec de grandes courbes, de belles lignes droites et un bon bitume, il y a de quoi se régaler !

From this side, a short spur of the Col de Bacchus. Through road, not very special

Vanaf deze kant een korte uitloper van de Col de Bacchus. Doorgaande weg, niet heel bijzonder
