A very long and steady climb. You’ll be cycling through a very open landscape, so the weather can affect how challenging the climb is. Halfway up is the village of Clavières, where there’s a small café. You can take a short break here if you need to.

Zeer lange en gelijkmatige loper. Je fietst door een heel open landschap, dus het weer kan beïnvloeden of de klim zwaarder is of niet. Halfweg ligt het dorpje Clavières waar een klein cafeetje is. Hier kan je even pauzeren als dat nodig is.

On my way to Lac de Naussagues, there's a very pleasant coastline with beautiful views before arriving in Lozère and Haute-Loire. Very nice memories.
