A climb on good asphalt and no traffic at all. The summit is at the "village" of Rocherfourchat, which consists of 1 house. Still recommended to stop by purely because there is no one there at all.... read more

Een klim op goed asfalt en überhaupt geen verkeer. De top is bij het 'dorp' Rocherfourchat, wat welgeteld uit 1 huis bestaat. Toch een aanrader om even langs te gaan puur omdat er helemaal niemand is.
