The climb is long and very uneven. The first three kilometres are easy, but be careful not to get caught out by a very steep first section. There is then another flat area and a second steep section.

La montée est longue et très irrégulière. Les trois premiers kilomètres sont facile mais attention à ne pas se faire surprendre par une première partie très raide. Il y a ensuite un nouveau replat puis une seconde partie raide.
