Magnificent climb through extraordinary mountain scenery. Quite shady, very pleasant little road. The slope becomes very steep from the barrier to the lake. Be careful at this time of year, as the road can be very busy with cars and quite narrow. No road markings. ... read more

Magnificent climb through extraordinary mountain scenery. Quite shady, very pleasant little road. The slope becomes very steep from the barrier to the lake. Be careful at this time of year, as the road can be very busy with cars and quite narrow. No road markings.

Montée magnifique dans un paysage de montagne extraordinaire. Assez ombragée, petite route très agréable. Pente qui devient bien raide à partir de la barrière jusqu'au lac. Attention à la période, la route peut être très fréquentée par les voitures et assez étroite. Pas de marquage au sol.
