Elle est très propre cette petite route !
Vraiment, aucun souci concernant le revêtement.
Les pourcentages ne font pas semblant de grimper. C’est court mais plutôt costaud.
Certains passages sont raides (15％).
Les lacets sont réussis. La forêt est agréable. Les maisons du village du Châtelet sont bien authentiques.
La descente est un régal, qui hélas, ne dure pas bien longtemps.
Une vraie petite montée sérieuse à l’écart de tout.
A short but beautiful little climb with surprisingly steep gradients, the road is very good despite some stones falling on the road, the steepest parts are in the shade even in the afternoon but it's still steep.
It is not necessary to continue past the last houses in the hamlet of Le Châtelet as the road becomes very bad and only in the woods, so it is of no interest.
For information there is a fresh water pool just before the start of the climb.
I didn't know it but I enjoyed it, thanks Climbfinder
Une courte mais belle petite ascension avec des pourcentages surprenants, la route est très bonne malgré des cailloux tombés sur la chaussée, le passage des plus fortes pentes est à l'ombre même l'après-midi mais c'est raide quand même.
Il n'est pas nécessaire de continuer après les dernières maisons du hameau Le Châtelet car la route devient très mauvaise et uniquement dans les bois donc sans intérêt.
Pour information il y a un bassin d'eau fraiche juste avant le début de la montée.
Je ne connaissais pas cette ascension, mais j'ai apprécier, merci Climbfinder
