Delightful climb! On top of a small initial bend, the slope of le Ventus d'Alembon looms up in front of you. After a short dive down the climb winds with the necessary hairpin bends up until the village where the climb got its name is reached. Highly recommended.

Heerlijke klim! Boven op een klein initieel knikje doemt de helling van le Ventus d'Alembon voor je op. Na een kleine duik naar beneden slingert de klim zich daarna met de nodige haarspeldbochten omhoog totdat het dorpje waar de klim zijn naam aan te danken heeft bereikt wordt. Een aanrader.
