Hard climb with gradients up to 15%-16%, but the scenery is worth the effort at the top. If you manage to regain your vision that is.

Handsome ascent steep through forests and past Lac de Corbeaux, a lake at altitude. Less appropriate to descend due to steep, narrow and some caution with road surface.

Knappe beklimming steil door de bossen en langs het Lac de Corbeaux, een meer op hoogte. Minder gepast om af te dalen wegens steil, smal en wat opletten met wegdek.

I did this climb from the climb to Lac de Carbeaux. From the lake, it goes up at percentages of 10 to 13 per cent. A kilometre after the lake, it becomes less steep(3 a 4%). The road surface there is good. On the last part of the climb, the tarmac is poor.

Ik heb deze klim gedaan vanaf de klim naar het Lac de Carbeaux. Vanaf het meer gaat het met percentages van 10 tot 13 procent omhoog. Een kilometer na het meer wordt het minder steil(3 a 4%). Het wegdek is daar goed. Op het laatste deel van de klim is het asfalt slecht.
