It's a real hill. The road is in very good condition. One section has even been tarmacked very recently. In the village of Les Clots, however, the road is in very poor condition. Pleasant climb, never difficult. Beautiful views over the valley. Super pleasant descent.... read more

C’est une vraie côte. La route est très bel état. Une portion a même été goudronnée très récemment. Par contre, elle est très dégradée dans le village de Les Clots. Montée plaisante, jamais difficile. Beau panorama sur la vallée. Descente super agréable.

From St. Clement is first steep up through a number of hairpin bends. The road is quiet. At the top there is a beautiful view over the valley of the Durance / Clement.

Vanuit St. Clement gaat het eerst steil omhoog via een aantal haarspeldbochten. De weg is rustig. Bovenaan is er een mooi uitzicht over het dal van de Durance/

A very quiet road, a beautiful view and quite a long climb. You can here in the neighborhood string together a lot of loops with this kind of climbs, where you quickly make many altimeters. It's no Izoard or Vars, but you won't encounter hordes of bikers here. I prefer to cycle here in mid-summer than on the famous cols...

Een hele rustige weg, een mooi uitzicht en best een lange klim. je kunt hier in de buurt een heleboel lussen aan elkaar rijgen met dit soort klimmetjes, waar je snel veel hoogtemeters maakt. Het is geen Izoard of Vars, maar je komt hier geen hordes motorrijders tegen. Ik fiets midden in de zomer liever hier dan op de beroemde cols...
