As a climb, a nice challenge. Because of little traffic, it is possible to use the entire width of the road. The traffic that is there drives very quietly because of the slope, road surface and curves. You can hear them coming from a distance.
The inn (see other review) is unfortunately not always open.
I did the descent slowly and braked almost constantly, due to the aforementioned road surface problems.
Als klim een mooie uitdaging. Vanwege weinig verkeer is het mogelijk de hele breedte van de weg te gebruiken. Het verkeer dat er is rijdt erg rustig ivm de helling, het wegdek en de bochten. Je hoort ze op afstand aankomen.
De herberg (zie andere review) is helaas niet altijd open.
De afdaling heb ik rustig gedaan en nagenoeg constant geremd, ivm de eerder genoemde wegdek problemen.
Be careful, it's hard, very hard.
The gradients remain high throughout the climb and the quality of the road doesn't help matters, but it's good training.
Do it from time to time
Attention dure, très dure.
Les pourcentages restent élevés pendant toute la montée et la qualité de la route n'arrange rien, mais c'est un bon entrainement.
A faire de temps en temps
Difficult and tiring climb, fortunately there's an inn at the top to quench your thirst.
The surface at the bottom is deteriorating, with a few holes, but it is better towards the top.
On a road bike it's a dead end, but on a gravel bike you can take a different route.
Montée difficile et usante, heureusement qu'il y a une auberge en haut pour se désaltérer.
le revêtement en bas se dégrade, avec quelques trous, il est meilleur vers le haut.
En vélo de route c'est un cul de sac, mais en gravel on peut partir vers un autre chemin.
A nice climb to do in the area because of its big gradients and a nice view on the valley on the way up. For the road bikes, the descent is necessarily done by the same way.
Une côte sympa à faire dans le coin pour ses gros pourcentages et une belle vue sur la vallée en montant. Pour les vélos de route, la descente se fait obligatoirement par le même chemin.
