The famous Paris Versailles hill (running). Lots of traffic, especially at the start and end of the day. It does, however, have the merit of having one of the highest positive gradients in the area. The climb is in two parts, with a small wall at ~10％ at the end.... read more

One of the steepest hills around Paris. However, the traffic on this route is heavy and at the top when it's very steep. Be careful, the cars have a central divider that restricts cyclists from overtaking!

Une des côtes les plus pentues aux alentours de Paris. Cependant la circulation sur cet axe est forte et sur le haut quand c'est très raide. Vigilance les voitures ont un séparateur central qui limite les dépassements de cyclistes !

My daily ride back in the day.
The top is marked 15％ on a traffic sign.
Going down I could hit 70 km/h.
Really good warm-up climb before hitting Versailles and the Vallee de Chevreuse

Fameuse côte du Paris Versailles (course à pied).
Beaucoup de circulation, surtout en début et fin de journée. Elle a cependant le mérite d'avoir parmi les plus grand dénivelé positif du coin.
Montée en deux parties, avec un petit mur à ~10％ sur la fin

Far too much traffic with vehicles barely moving out of the way.

Beaucoup trop de circulation avec les véhicules qui s'écartent à peine.

Famous local climb to get to the Vallée de Chevreuse but nothing more. Huge amount of traffic and the climb is 100％ in town.

Célèbre montée du coin pour se rendre dans la vallée de Chevreuse mais rien de plus. Énormément de circulation et l’ascension se fait 100％ en ville.
