Coming from Luvigny, the climb really begins at Raon-sur-Plaine: the gradient steepens abruptly, and for around 2.5km the percentage is steady, with passages of over 10%. You can either take a moderate pace with a little development, or indulge yourself for a quarter of an hour as you build up the power. The road is quiet and uncluttered with great views over the valley to the north or the high plains. Excellent surfacing.... read more

Excellent surfacing.

En venant de Luvigny, la montée commence vraiment à Raon-sur-Plaine : la pente se raidit brusquement, et pendant environ 2.5 km le pourcentage est soutenu, avec des passages à plus de 10%. Vous pouvez soit prendre un rythme modérée avec un petit développement, ou vous faire plaisir pendant un quart d'heure en montant en puissance.
La route est calme et dégagée et offre de belles vues sur la vallée au nord ou les plaines d'altitude.
Revêtement excellent.
