A good idea when you don't have time for a long climb.
Effectivement, la route est bosselée ou craquelée, puis bosselée et craquelée, sur une bonne partie du chemin.
Un panneau nous prévient : « viabilité incertaine ». Ce n’est pas franchement handicapant. Enfin, c’est davantage une frustration pour la descente.
Les lacets sont plutôt larges. C’est une ascension courte, mais intense. Les pourcentages ne sont pas là pour nous distraire. Ça grimpe fort. La fin notamment, est bien raide.
Les paysages ne sont pas renversants mais le panorama est élégant.
À faire quand on n’a pas le temps de se lancer sur une longue montée.
