Not crazy, but rather pleasant. Everything's better than that awful N85 saturated with smelly vehicles. It's smooth and the surface is good. There is some gravel on the way down to Thoard. From Digne, you have to do both sides.... read more

Cool but not great either. Perfect for beginners.

Cool mais pas non plus extra. Parfait pour les débutants.

I found this climb very enjoyable, but full in the sun and at 35 degrees very hot. The fun parts of the climb only start after the village. There you have nice views to the right of the valley and the mountains around it.

Ik vond deze klim erg leuk, maar vol in de zon en met 35 graden erg warm. De leuke gedeeltes van de klim beginnen pas na het dorp. Daar heb je mooie uitzichten naar rechts van de vallei en de bergen eromheen.

The actual climb only starts in the village of Champtecier, from there it's 3.5km of lovely kilometres at a doable/running gradient (5% average). The 3km before the village you ride on a wide road at a similar gradient, these kilometres are nothing special.

De eigenlijke klim begint pas in het dorpje Champtecier, vandaaruit zijn het 3.5km heerlijke kilometers aan een goed doenbaar/ lopend stijgingspercentage (5% gemiddeld). De 3km voor het dorpje rijd je over een brede weg aan een gelijkaardig stijgingspercentage, deze kilometers zijn weinig speciaal.

It's smooth and the surface is good. There is some gravel on the way down to Thoard.
From Digne, you have to do both sides.

Pas dingue, mais plutôt agréable. Tout est mieux que cette affreuse N85 saturée de véhicules puants.
C’est doux, le revêtement est bon. Tout de même des gravillons en descendant vers Thoard.
Depuis Digne, il faut faire les deux versants.
