It's very nice, but it's the easy version, so keep going afterwards to get even better percentages. It's not very busy, but it's not very well maintained, although it's acceptable for road bikes.... read more

It's very nice, but it's the easy version, so keep going afterwards to get even better percentages. It's not very busy, but it's not very well maintained, although it's acceptable for road bikes.

C’est très sympa, mais c’est la version facile, continuer un coup après pour avoir des encore meilleurs pourcentage. Peu fréquenté mais peu entretenu même si acceptable pour les vélos de routes.

A road with little traffic and a magnificent view of Lac de Serre Poncon. Be warned though, the state of the roads in this part of the 05 is pretty pitiful. Coming from the Ardèche, I'm used to much better than this.

Route peu fréquentée, avec une vue magnifique sur le Lac de Serre Poncon. Attention cependant, l'état des routes dans ce secteur du 05 sont dans un état assez pitoyables. Moi qui viens de l'Ardèche, je suis habitué à beaucoup mieux que ça.
