magnificent view with a store to restock water and snacks

this is a steep climb and it sent at consistently 8% (with some sections a bit above). but there is a nice 2 hour hike at the top to Obongson mountain, and the road is in good shape, very quiet, with a climbing lane for the climber.

in order to get off, there's some very steep grades on the road, but once you get onto the gravel it's pretty consistently two to 3%. very quiet and in decent shape as of writing this (2024)

It's a very nice climb gently going up without crazy hairpins. There been no cars so the road is yours. The very last few meters been gravel and a bit technical for a road bike.

medium steep pass on a empty road. Just the end rising a bit up.
