The climb starts gently in the village of Jannée, right up to the left-hand crossroads where the downhill road becomes very narrow for about fifty metres and ends up in a tunnel; beware of the road if it is wet. Then the serious stuff starts, the gradients gradually increase without becoming too steep and the corner is sheltered as the climb passes through a beautiful wood. Superb in autumn, by the way. It's a steady climb up to a 200m or so false flat and the star finishes with a short bump. Big downside for the surface.
La montée commence gentiment dans le village de Jannée, jusqu'à ce carrefour gauche où la route en descente devient très étroite sur une cinquantaine de mètres pour finir dans un tunnel, gare à la route si elle est mouillée. Puis c'est après que les choses sérieuses commencent, les pourcentages augmentent progressivement sans devenir trop prononcés et le coin est à l'abri puisque la côte traverse un beau bois. Superbe en automne d'ailleurs. C'est régulier jusqu'à un faux plat de +/- 200M et l'étoile se termine par une courte bosse. Gros Bémol pour le revêtement.

AScension en deux temps, avec un passage dans un tunnel assez étroit en dessous de la N4, lors duquel il faut espérer ne pas croiser de voiture car c'est très étroit.
La deuxième partie est un Cotacol, mais il faut tourner à droite après le tunnel puis faire demi-tour
