The Col des 4 (Quatre Vios from Saint-Pierreville is a beautiful climb in the Ardèche that you absolutely must experience. It is a challenging but accessible route for cyclists, with a perfect balance between effort and enjoyment.

During the climb, you are surrounded by breathtaking nature. A special moment for me was when I rode behind two small deer for two minutes, which gracefully ran up the mountain - a magical experience. The route also takes you past a charming little castle, which adds an extra touch of charm to the ride. The recently paved road makes for a smooth climb, while the shelter along the route protects you from the sun on many parts of the climb.

After reaching the summit at 1149 meters, more beauty awaits you. As you continue your way towards the Col de Fayolle, you have the chance to enjoy breathtaking panoramic views for minutes on end. As you ride along the ridge, surrounded by mountains and valleys, it seems as if you are seeing the landscape from all sides can admire. The descent over the mountain ridge is a unique experience that makes this trip an unforgettable experience, where you are completely absorbed in the beauty of the nature around you.
