Made on the morning of May 27. The real slopes begin when we leave the Rte du Petit St Bernard, and I find the climb more difficult than the profile suggests. The road is narrow and the asphalt is fine, and on a hot day, a few passages in the shade are beneficial. After the hamlet of Mont Villaret, 2.5km remain on a very narrow road in average condition. There are hardly any cars, and the scenery is magnificent.... read more

Fait le 27 Mai au matin.
Les véritables pentes commencent lorsque l'on quitte la Rte du Petit St Bernard, je trouve l'ascension plus difficile que le profil ne laisse présager.
La chaussée est étroite et le bitume correct, par de fortes chaleurs, quelques passages à l'ombre sont bienfaisants .
Après le hameaux de Mont Villaret il reste 2,5km sur une Rte très étroite et en état moyen.
Quasiment aucune voiture et les paysages sont magnifiques.
