Long, gruelling pass. Don't put too much pressure on your feet as the gradients are at the end. Don't be surprised by this climb, which is easy to do if you're regular. A must-do. Bonus: magnificent scenery!... read more

Col long et éreintant. Ne pas mettre trop de force au pied car les pourcentages sont a la fin. Il ne faut pas se faire surprendre par cette montée, qui est réalisable facilement si vous êtes réguliers. A faire absolument. Bonus: des paysages magnifiques!

Handsome final ascent of the Ardéchoise. You climb winding through forests and pastures on a small road, with the last bit on a slightly larger road.

Knappe laatste beklimming van de Ardéchoise. Je klimt er bochtig door bossen en langs weilanden over een kleine weg, met het laatste stukje over een wat grotere weg.
