A fairly ordinary, clean road that climbs in a fairly ordinary way towards a fairly ordinary village... But Molineuf is rather cute. The main reason we're here is for the other little climb, the Chemin du Tertre du Billieux, which starts in front of the same little wash-house and is well worth the diversions.... read more

Une route propre assez ordinaire qui grimpe de façon assez ordinaire vers un village assez ordinaire…
Mais, Molineuf, c’est plutôt mignon.
Si l’on est ici, c’est surtout pour l’autre petite montée, le chemin du tertre du Billieux, qui démarre devant le même petit lavoir et qui elle vaut le détour.

It's a short climb with no particular difficulties, but it does allow you to get up from the pretty hamlet of Molineuf and discover this very hilly area. The route starts in the centre of Molineuf, on the banks of the Cisse, with fine views over the river and a pretty wash-house.
A good warm-up before climbing the other walls at the start of the hamlet!

Petite montée sans difficultés particulières, elle permet toutefois de s’élever à partir du joli hameau de Molineuf et de découvrir ce coin très vallonné. Départ au centre de Molineuf, en bord de Cisse, avec de beaux points de vue sur la rivière, et un joli lavoir.
Une bonne mise en jambes avant de monter les autres murs au départ du hameau !
