A great climb for fans of steep climbs!
You get into the swing of things in the first few metres, and the second part with its bends is easier to tackle (even if you need to be in good physical condition).

Super montée pour les amateurs de forts pourcentages!
On rentre dès les premiers mètres dans le vif du sujet, et la seconde partie avec les virages est plus facile à aborder (même s'il faut être en bonne condition physique)

Be careful, it's a real wall!
I recommend to do this wall if you have a minimum of training and if you like the strong percentages!
On the other hand I don't recommend it to those who are looking for beautiful passes with nice views etc... and who are not fans of big gradients.
There are no nice views because the trees are very present, but this does not prevent the climb from having some charm... We move in the trees throughout the 3 laces of the climb.
The traffic is very calm.
In 2017, the last time I did this wall, the surface was not in good condition, but since then I think there is a new tarmac.

Attention, c'est un véritable mur !!
Je recommande de faire ce mur si vous avez un minimum d'entrainement et si vous aimez les fort pourcentages !
Par contre je déconseille à ceux qui cherchent de beaux cols avec de belles vues etc... et qui ne sont pas fan de gros pourcentages.
Il n'y à pas de jolies vues car les arbres sont très présents ce qui n’empêche pas la montée d’avoir du charme... On évolue dans les arbres tout au long des 3 lacets la montée.
La circulation est très calme.
En 2017, la dernière fois que j'ai effectué ce mur, le revêtement n'était pas en bon état, mais depuis je crois qu'il y a un nouveau goudron.
