A nice and long climb with an irregular first part with some hurting percentages (presence of a 14% sign in the climb on the first wall), Then it's quiet until we approach the last part which is regular around 8% The road is quiet except for the 2km on the B500 which is busy at the weekend.

Une belle et longue montée avec une première partie irrégulière avec des pourcentages qui font mal (présence d’un panneau 14% dans la montée sur le premier mur),
Ensuite c’est tranquille jusqu’à ce qu’on aborde la dernière partie qui est régulière autour de 8%
La route est calme à l’exception des 2 km sur la B500 qui sont chargés le week-end end.
Quelques points de vue remarquables,
La vue sur la plaine depuis le sommet est incroyable.
