An exciting climb like few others in the region. Starting in the beautiful town of Pont-à-Mousson and tackling a wall that climbs up to the clouds, but above all to the ruins of the castle of Mousson, a welcome gift with its sublime views of the region and Pont-à-Mousson, like a glimpse of the starting point that seems so far away. All in all, you mustn't let go of anything in the 18-19% games, because the pleasure of having done it in one go will only be increased tenfold.... read more

Spicy climb due to the steep percentages, the Garmin tapped the 18% for a while. But a smooth cadence will get you to the top if all goes well given the length of the climb. Little is indeed left of the castle, so don't expect too much from the ruins.

Pittige klim door de steile percentages, de Garmin tikte de 18% wel even aan. Maar met een soepele cadans kom je gezien de lengte van de klim als het goed is boven. Van het kasteel is inderdaad weinig meer over, dus verwacht niet te veel van de ruïnes.

Une montée qui procure de l'émotion comme peu d'autres dans le région. Débuter dans la très belle ville de Pont-à-Mousson pour s'attaquer à un mur grimpant jusqu'aux nuages mais avant tout aux ruines du château de Mousson, cadeau d'arrivée de part ses sublimes vues sur la région et Pont-à-Mousson, comme un regard sur le point de départ qui semble alors si éloigné. En somme, il ne faut rien lâcher dans les parties à 18-19%, car le plaisir de l'avoir fait d'une traite n'en serra que décuplé.
