Nice climb via a wide and good road. Recently a bicycle lane was also provided halfway along the road on both sides in a yellow colour

Mooie klim via een bredeen goede weg. Onlangs werd er halfweg ook een fietsstrook voorzien aan beide zijden in een gele kleur

A truly magnificent climb on a very pretty road. There's a good quality bike shoulder available almost non-stop and there's very little traffic.
There's not much shade and there's no way to refuel once you reach the top before méjanne-le-clap, but the view and the surroundings are worth it. You feel very isolated and alone in the world.

Montée vraiment magnifique sur une très jolie route. Un accotement vélo de bonne qualité est disponible quasiment sans discontinuité et il y a très peu de circulation.
Attention, il y a peu d'ombre et pas de moyen de se ravitailler une fois en haut avant méjanne-le-clap, mais la vue et l’environnement valent le coup. On se sent très isolé et seul au monde.
