Huge fine climb, long and quite challenging!

Vond dit een zeer slecht stuk weg, maar de omgeving en het uitzicht was geweldig.

Quiet route, some manoeuvring along the fence to get on, but nice cycling after that. Good to do by road bike, but the road surface is not good and there are frequent stones. Nice run-up to Mont Vinaigre.

Rustige route, even langs het hek manouvreren om erop te komen, maar daarna mooi fietsen. Goed te doen met de racefiets, maar het wegdek is niet goed en er liggen regelmatig stenen. Leuke aanloop naar de Mont Vinaigre.
