The Ventoux's little brother. With a length of 17.7 kilometres and an ascent of 1054 vertical metres and a gradient of 5.9% on average, which implies a difficulty level of 688. The summit of the climb is located at 1746 metres above sea level. At the top the views are fabulous both towards Ventoux itself and towards the Alps. A long, very pleasant and fun climb that is worth the effort with percentages that remain around 5/6/7% and some peaks of up to 9.3%. The last 2 kilometres are very easy.
