This is one steep hill. The climb starts gently at the gendarmerie, and you have to take it easy because it's at the bend that things get complicated. At this point, the gradient, in excess of 15％, makes it impossible to manage'my speedometer even showed 21％! When you reach the junction with the other hill, you can finally breathe a sigh of relief.... read more

Voilà une côte bien raide. La montée commence doucement au niveau de la gendarmerie, il faut veiller à partir tranquillement car c'est au virage que ça se complique. Là, la pente, au-delà de 15％, vous empêche de gérer, mon compteur m'a même affiché 21％! Lorsque vous atteignez le croisement avec l'autre côte, vous pouvez enfin souffler.
