This climb is actually only a warm-up on the way to Mont Violette. The climb itself is not really worth a detour. In contrast to most other climbs in the area, this one partly goes through forest instead of open fields. For a long time, the slope looks like one long drop, until suddenly just before the summit there's another 200 meters of steepness.... read more

Deze klim dient eigenlijk slechts als opwarmer op weg naar de Mont Violette. De klim zelf is niet echt een omweg waard. In tegenstelling tot de meeste hellingen in de streek loopt deze deels door bosrijke omgeving ipv open weiden. Lange tijd lijkt de helling niks anders dan een lang valsplat, totdat ineens vlak voor de top er nog 200 steilere meters volgen.
