Well, you have to like challenging yourself on steep gradients.
Apart from that, the road is good but narrow, fortunately without too much traffic.

Bon, il faut aimer se challenger sur des pentes à gros pourcentage.
En dehors de ça, la route est bonne mais étroite, heureusement sans trop de trafic.

The ascent of the Artzamendi is already tough, but from here you can make it even tougher by climbing furiously from the start, then descending for a bit and picking up in the ascent of the Artzamendi.

De beklimming van de Artzamendi is al zwaar, maar langs hier kan je ze nog zwaarder maken door van bij de start loeihard te klimmen, vervolgens een stuk af te dalen en in te pikken in de beklimming van de Artzamendi.

Short pass but extremely hard for my part with a passage at 22% and a climb over 500 metres at over 15%. All the time in dancers to be able to move forward. Beautiful scenery awaits you at the summit, which is not displayed.

Col court mais extrêmement dur pour ma part avec un passage à 22% et une montée sur plus de 500 mètres à plus de 15%. Tout le temps en danseuse pour pouvoir avancer. Un beau paysage vous attend au sommet qui n'est pas matérialisé.
