We were at the campsite at the top of this climb, so it was more of a must. but the road surface is in fine condition only you have to take into account time of day, because if there is little wind and the sun is full on it is a pretty tough climb.

Wij stonden op de camping aan de top van deze klim, dus het was meer een moetje. maar het wegdek is in prima staat alleen moet je rekening houden met tijdstip van de dag, want als er weinig wint is en de zon er vol op staat dan is het een best pittige klim.
