The climb is easily accessible from Lans, and visible on the ridge front from St Nizier, which makes it attractive from a distance! Still, it climbs quite a bit, and there are some big sections with high percentages (from 12 to 18%) but for short durations which means it doesn't show up on the profile. The end leads to a path so you have to turn back, but the view is nice!... read more

La montée est facilement accessible depuis Lans, et visible sur le front de crête depuis St Nizier, ce qui la rend attrayante de loin ! Elle monte quand même sensiblement, et il y a de gros passages à de fort pourcentage (de 12 à 18%) mais sur de courtes durées ce qui fait que ça n’apparaît pas sur le profil. La fin débouche sur un chemin donc il faut faire demi tour mais la vue est sympathique !
