Highlight (Segment) • Other

Very pretty road along the Vauziron in the shelter of the trees.
Attention rather demanding in the direction Châteldon-Lachaux. On the first half the bitumen is brand new, a treat!

From the Col de la Plantade and taking the direction of La Guillermie, in the descent, the view will emerge on your left. It is possible to continue a little further down and take advantage of a path to take a break.
