Nice climb at the start, and after that the road is very damaged.
Mostly forest.

Road surface after the D253 exit is very bad. For climbing this is not such a big problem. But descending is strongly discouraged because of the large potholes. On the descent towards Albeville, the first part of the road is also very bad, but that gets better quickly. But there are plenty of nicer climbs nearby.
