Not very difficult, nice cycling. For how touristy the lake is, I am not too bad about how much traffic there was (quite little). The descent is nice.... read more

Niet heel moeilijk, lekker fietsen. Voor hoe toeristisch het meer is, valt het mij mee hoeveel verkeer er was (vrij weinig). De afdaling is mooi.

Not a very hard climb. Necessary for the rest of the tour of the lake (unless you go via Pontis) but the rock is good.

Montée pas très dure. Nécessaire pour le reste du tour du lac (sauf à passer par Pontis) la roite est bonne cependant.

Well, let's not lie, cars are a pain in the ass and this is what you get, but it's normal, it's the main road but it's a pain in the ass

Bon on va pas se mentir, les voitures ça fait chier et là t’es servi, mais c’est normal c’est la route principale mais c’est chiant
