Nice climb to a mini massif called the Ceüse. The road starts from the main through road Veynes-Gap and from then on it is quiet. After the straight part, the hairpin bends start and the percentage increases. The road is reasonably sheltered with occasional passages through a forest. In the corner of your eye you can see the impressive summits of the Devoluy and in the distance those of the Ecrins. The climb itself is quite tough with lots of 8-10% sections with peaks upwards.

Nice climb to a mini massif called the Ceüse. The road starts from the main through road Veynes-Gap and from then on it is quiet. After the straight part, the hairpin bends start and the percentage increases. The road is reasonably sheltered with occasional passages through a forest. In the corner of your eye you can see the impressive summits of the Devoluy and in the distance those of the Ecrins. The climb itself is quite tough with lots of 8-10% sections with peaks upwards. The last part of the climb flattens out a bit so you don't end up completely worn out. There are quite a few cyclists (including regular bikes!) who also go up and there is a lot of walking on the top. The route is largely covered with gravillon, fast descent is not possible.

Mooie klim naar een mini-massief de Ceüse. De weg start vanaf de grote doorgaande route Veynes-Gap en vanaf dan is het rustig. Na het rechte stuk starten de slingers met haarspeldbochten en neemt het percentage toe. De weg is redelijk beschut met af toe passages door een bos. In de ooghoek zie je de indrukwekkende toppen van de Devoluy en in de verte die van de Ecrins. De klim zelf is redelijk pittig met hele stukken 8-10% met uitschieters naar boven. Het laatste deel vlakt wat af waardoor je niet helemaal kapot boven komt. Er zijn redelijk wat fietsers (ook gewone fietsen!) die ook naar boven gaan en boven wordt veel gewandeld. De route is grotendeels bedekt met gravillon, snel afdalen is dan niet meer mogelijk.

Nice wide dead end road to a simple ski area on top (where you can also do some hiking). Excellent road surface with rarely a car, so it is tempting to him full speed to descend.

Mooie brede doodlopende weg naar een simpel wintersportgebiedje bovenop de top (waar je ook prima kan wandelen). Uitstekend wegdek met zelden een auto, waardoor het ook verleidelijk is om hem volle bak af te dalen.
