One of the few climbs around Dijon with a little bit of percentage, at least at the beginning. Then a false flat without exceptional landscape and to finish the climb on the Mont, which is pleasant. The road is of average quality but without any real problems.
To be done when you are in the area.

Une des rares côtes autour de Dijon avec un peu de pourcentage, en tout cas au début. Puis un faux plat sans paysage exceptionnel et pour finir la grimpette sur le Mont, qui est agréable. La route est de qualité moyenne mais, sans réel souci.
À faire quand on est dans les parages.
