This short climb, which goes up to 20% in a gradual manner, provides a good alternative for returning from La Chapelle/St Agnan to St Martin as, passing through Tourte, you pass through small roads that are much less busy than the main one, which is not wide and where cars drive fast.

Cette courte montée qui va jusqu’à 20% de manière progressive permet une bonne alternative pour rentrer de la Chapelle/St Agnan à St Martin car en passant par Tourte on passe dans des petites routes bien moins fréquentées que la principale qui n’est pas large et où les voitures roulent vite. De mémoire il y a de quoi remplir les gourdes à Tourte ou au Moraux un peu avant.
