It's worth doing if you like peace and quiet and undergrowth climbs.
There's not much at the top. There are two forest tracks that climb higher, and this time mountain biking is more suitable.
There are fountains all along the route. The water at the last two is not controlled, but it can be useful.
Alors, certes, cette minuscule route n’est pas exactement une piste de bowling, mais, elle est absolument et résolument praticable et ce, avec un vélo de route et des pneus de 23.
OK, la descente demande de l’attention, mais, personnellement, je l’ai trouvée sympa à faire.
Les courbes sont belles. La forêt est sauvage.
Les pourcentages sont assez sérieux et irréguliers.
Cette montée mérite bien ses 723 points.
A faire si vous aimez le calme et les ascensions en sous-bois.
En haut, pas grand chose. Deux chemins forestiers qui grimpent plus haut et là, cette fois, le VTT sera effectivement plus indiqué.
A noter : des fontaines un peu partout sur le parcours. L’eau des deux dernières n’est pas contrôlée, mais, ça peut rendre service.
Interesting climb for a workout, after that it's 95% forest so nothing to see apart from one spot where you have a nice clear view.
The road is really bad, the descent is just horrible, I did it because I live next door to see what it was like but I certainly won't do it again.
Montée intéressante pour un entraînement, après c’est 95% de forêt donc rien à voir à part un endroit ou on a un belle vue dégagée.
La route est vraiment mauvaise, la descente est juste horrible, je l’ai fait car j’habite à coté pour voir ce que ça donnait mais je ne la referai sûrement pas.
