Tips from the Community
Are you cycling here on your racing bike? Then the fun ends. Although Komoot didn't indicate it, this turned out to be no longer asphalt. Perhaps it's asphalt again further on, but that's for a gravel biker to discover 😉. Personal tip: cycle to the waterfall sign. Have a drink and then descend again. The descent is also beautiful!

Shortly before this, you'll encounter a stretch of accessible gravel, suitable for a road bike, and the descent is also no problem. Then comes a stretch of asphalt that immediately puts your legs to the test with sections up to 18% gradient. A bit further on, the asphalt finally ends, unfortunately.

A very beautiful shaded path leads you to the very discreet Sagnières aqueduct. This Roman construction shows how much the inhabitants of the time gave water all their attention. Sagnières in Old French means marsh, wet meadow. This explains the presence of this small technical feat.
