The cobbled road starts at the lock and in the tourist area with the Abbaye d'Aulne, then the concrete road is not in good condition.not On the downhill side, in some places very bad, I preferred to reach the town of Thuin and take the Ravel back along the Sambre.

Le début la route en pavés au niveau de l'écluse et dans le site touristique avec l'Abbaye d'Aulne puis route en béton pas en bon état.Pas Côté descente à certains endroits très mauvais, j'ai préféré rejoindre la ville de Thuin et reprendre le Ravel le long de la Sambre

Firstly, from a sporting point of view: a very easy climb up to the bend where the gradient suddenly increases after several flat areas, but an easy climb overall.
Then there's the state of the road: as the previous comment said, the road does have holes, but mainly in the downhill direction and not the uphill direction. In the uphill direction there are a few holes, but only on the summit.

Tout d'abord au niveau sportif: montée très facile jusqu'au virage ou la pente augmente d'un coup après plusieurs replat mais montée facile dans l'ensemble.
Puis au niveau de l'état de la route: en effet, comme le dit le commentaire précédent la route a des trous mais surtout dans le sens de la descente et non de la montée. Dans le sens de la montée il y a quelques trous mais seulement sur le sommet

If there's one climb you absolutely must avoid, it's this one! I didn't climb this horror, I descended it: the concrete surface is in a deplorable state. Admittedly, new concrete has been laid in places, but the general impression is negative. What's more, this road offers nothing of interest; it's wide and, apart from the wide bend, straight.

S'il y a bien une montée à éviter absolument, c'est celle-ci ! Je n'ai pas grimpé cette horreur, je l'ai descendue : le revêtement en béton est dans un état déplorable. Certes, par endroits, on a remis un nouveau béton mais l'impression générale est négative. De plus, cette route n'offre aucun intérêt, elle est large et, si ce n'est le large virage, rectiligne.
