Getting away from the hustle and bustle of La Roche. Good road surface, nice scenery and this one winds nicely uphill.

Even lekker weg uit de drukte van La Roche. Goed wegdek, mooie omgeving en deze slingert leuk naar boven.

This little gem is worth another diversions if you are descending towards La Roche. Beautiful winding road through the forest dir out into a nice little village. The descent after this village also has beautiful views

Dit pareltje is nog een omweggetje waard als je aan het afdalen bent richting La Roche. Mooie slingerweg door het bos dir uitkomt in een leuk klein dorpje. De afdaling na dit dorpje heeft ook prachtige uitzichten

For anyone near La Roche, this is actually a must. Beautifully winding through the forest, but don't forget to turn right at the church. Then comes a very tough stretch up to the chapel

Voor wie in de buurt van La Roche is, is dit eigenlijk een must. Mooi slingerend door het bos, maar vergeet aan de kerk niet naar rechts te draaien. Dan komt nog een zeer pittig stuk tot aan de kapel

Short climb that winds up nicely between the trees. Never really steep, ideal to test your legs.

Kort klimmetje die zich mooi omhoog slingert tussen de bomen. Nooit echt steil, ideaal om eens de benen te testen.

Nice little climb that slopes gently upwards. The many curves and the wooded surroundings make it very pleasant cycling.
It's not that steep here and it's pretty even.
Nice to do if you come from the Haussire.

Mooi klimmetje die gezapig omhoog slingert. De vele bochten en de bosrijke omgeving maken het hier zeer aangenaam fietsen.
Daarbij loopt her hier niet zo steil en vrij gelijkmatig.
Leuk om te doen als je van de Haussire komt.

Very nice and relatively short climb that goes up and down. Ideal starting point between the descent of the Haussire and the Côte de Dochamps.

Heel leuk en relatief kort klimmetje dat heen en weer naar boven slingert. Ideaal aanknopingspunt tussen de afdaling van de Haussire en de Côte de Dochamps .

Short and easy climb that winds through the forest to Cielle. Quiet alternative for the descent via the N89 to la Roche. In Cielle you can then descend via the Route du Tram or continue at altitude to Marcouray.

Korte en rustige klim die door het bos heen slingert naar Cielle. Rustig alternatief voor de afdaling via de N89 naar la Roche. In Cielle kun je dan afdalen via de Route du Tram of op hoogte doorfietsen naar Marcouray
