A somewhat adventurous climb, as the road surface is not great everywhere, (doable on a road bike) but the views are great. You cycle up along a beautiful stream in a very peaceful setting. Highly recommended for anyone who likes quiet climbs!... read more

Een wat avontuurlijke klim, want het wegdek is niet overal geweldig, (goed te doen op de racefiets) maar het uitzicht is geweldig. Je fietst langs een mooi beekje omhoog in een zeer rustige omgeving. Een aanrader voor iedereen die van rustige beklimmingen houdt!

This climb yesterday after the Ceillac done but this is really not recommended, the roads are so broken which is perilous in the descent, and then you have to dodge cars's coming up to walk. on the top is also nothing to see outside a parking lot with cars's ...

Deze klim gister gedaan na de Ceillac maar dit is echt geen aanrader, de wegen zijn zo kapot wat levensgevaarlijk is bij de afdaling, en dan moet je nog auto's ontwijken die naar boven komen om te wandelen.Op de top is ook niks te zien buiten een parking met auto's...
