Hard road ride. Very good fitness required. Mostly well-paved surfaces and easy to ride. The starting point of the route is accessible with public transport.

Fantastic side road

Highlight (Segment) • Other

I would rather recommend this fantastic side road as a climb from the Vailhan reservoir because the surface is rather unfavorable for a quick descent.

Lac de Vailhan

Highlight • Lake

Superb place with a splendid landscape. The road is not in very good condition but is however not dangerous. And it's worth taking it.
