    Road cycling

    Something like this probably only exists in France. A perfectly paved bike path to the top of a mountain pass. The climb here is closed to motorized traffic, but it's quite challenging. For long stretches, the gradients are between 13 and 15%. In places, even up to 17 and 18%. The upper part of the route is entirely through forest, so there are no views. But that doesn't matter; you're busy with yourself anyway.

    Great Climb with new tarmac. Although steep and not easy it's still very enjoyable.

    As I said, this is the "highway".
