Tips
This superb section of road which heads towards the Col de La Cayolle overlooks the Bachelard gorges for the most part.

The gorge is very beautiful.
Startup is fun, as it is always between 3-6%.
Narrow street with evasive coves.

I rode this gorge down from Cayolle after climbing the other side. What an incredible place, really beautiful! Too bad it doesn't last long downhill, I would have liked to turn the bike around and do it slowly uphill.
