Ascent on May 28, 2021. Regular climb, can be very hot in summer as there is almost no shade, but in May it wasn't so bad. Nice to continue pedaling to the Col de la Sine. It is also possible, from the same starting point (junction D5/D6085), to climb the Pas de la Faye / Col de la Faye. Good road. In May, little traffic.... read more

Montée le 28 mai 2021 . Montée régulière, peut être très chaude en été car il n'y a presque pas d'ombre, mais en mai ce n'était pas si mal. Nice pour continuer à pédaler jusqu'au Col de la Sine. Il est également possible, à partir du même point de départ (jonction D5/D6085), de faire l'ascension du Pas de la Faye / Col de la Faye. Bonne route. En mai, peu de trafic.
