Very nice climb, possibility of taking a little more slope by turning left just before the summit to climb to the viewpoint.

Très belle montée, possibilité de prendre un peu plus de pente en prenant à gauche juste avant le sommet pour monter au point de vue

A very pleasant climb up the Val d'Enfer, with a more demanding finish at the foot of the pretty hilltop village of Les Baux de Provence.

Montée du val d’enfer très agréable à rouler avec arrivée plus exigeante pour atteindre le pied du très joli village perché des Baux de Provence.

Very nice climb with few vehicles. Crescendo climb with a few easy gradients at the end. Magnificent views of Baux de Provence. If you're in the area, I recommend this climb.

The climb starts straight up with a few bends at the end where the summit comes into view. The view is beautiful.

La montée commence droite avec quelques virages à la fin ou se découvre le sommet. La vue est belle.

If you are in the Alpilles definitely take in this climb. One of the most beautiful climbs in the area and much quieter than the road via les Antiques to les Baux. The road gradually gets steeper. And especially from about the hairpin, it takes some time to get going. Possibly turn left on the col to a viewpoint (asphalted until there).

Als je in de Alpilles bent zeker deze klim meepakken. Een van de mooiste klimmen in de buurt en veel rustiger dan de weg via les Antiques naar les Baux. De weg wordt geleidelijk steiler. En zeker vanaf ongeveer de haarspeldbocht is het even doortrekken. Eventueel op de col linksaf slaan naar een uitzichtpunt (geasfalteerd tot daar)
