サン・セルナンの峠・トップ6

This climb captures everything Auvergne has to offer. Starting in the charming and famous village of Salers, it ends at another symbol of this region known for its volcanoes: Puy Mary. On the bike side, it's a 23-kilometer climb with an average gradient of 3.7%. Be careful, however, as this low gradient is due to the long, five-kilometer flat stretch after the Col de Néronne. Save your energy for the last two kilometers, which are formidable, with a gradient that never drops below 10%.

Rain, visibility 1m, but otherwise great

Col de Légal, at an altitude of 1,231 meters, on the beautiful Route des Crêtes. It allows you to go from the Doire valley to the Bertrande valley, in the heart of the Pays de Salers. There you will find a small inn open all year round.

Super

Inevitable crossing point of the ridge road from which we can consider a lot of options for our outings with the added possibility of a gourmet and refreshing stopover. 🍻
