Done on 11 April 2022 with Éric. A good short climb to the Planfait paragliding take-off area (much less well known than the one at La Forclaz de Montmin). The first 4-5 kilometres are similar to the ascent of La Forclaz de Montmin, then turn left onto the Rte de Ponnay, which later becomes the Rte de Planfait. The road is narrow and not always in good condition, but it's fine on a road bike, and the gradient gets steeper as you approach the finish. Arrive at a car park in the earth an... read more

The road is narrow and not always in good condition, but it's fine on a road bike, and the gradient gets steeper as you approach the finish.
Arrive at a car park in the earth and to enjoy a view of the lake, walk a little to the take-off area.
Ps: Keep to the right as vehicles carrying paragliders do not always mix well with cyclists.

Fait le 11 avril 2022 avec Éric.
Une bonne petite ascension jusqu'à l'aire de décollage de parapente de Planfait ( beaucoup moins connu que celui de La Forclaz de Montmin )
Les 4-5 premiers kilomètres sont similaires à L'ascension de La Forclaz de Montmin puis il faut prendre à gauche la Rte de Ponnay qui va ensuite devenir Rte de Planfait.
La chaussée est étroite, pas toujours en bon état mais ça passe en vélo de route, la pente devient de plus en plus raide à l'approche du final.
Arrivée sur un parking en Terre et pour profiter d'un point de vue sur le Lac, il faut marcher un peu jusqu’à l'aire de décollage.
Ps : Tenir la droite car les véhicules qui montent les parapentistes ne font pas toujours bonne cohabitation avec les cyclistes.
