베소‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪4‬개의 산길

Maximum slopes of 6.2% in the Benas David pass, we didn't have to do the same. And then 17.5 km with a flat area which can make it seem shorter if you don't have the wind in your face. There are some passages that are even steeper. I consider it more difficult than Ventoux from Areau to Chalet Reynard 20km. But it is true, a very nice pass to do, for a good beginner like me aged... (Lol).. And a good preparation in comparison therefore for the Ventoux from Areau done the next day, in which it was necessary to have kept strength for the 6 deniers kilometres.

The climbs are super pleasant. The descents are risky because they are narrow and fast. Attention !

From this pass we see the Privas plain to the north and the Aubenas plain to the south.

The Col de Fontenelle is 9.4 km long with a total drop of 395 m. The average gradient is 4.2% with maximum gradients of 11.7%.

The Col du Benas from Privas is 13.5 km long with a total drop of 515 m. The average gradient is 3.7% with maximum gradients of 6.2%.

The Col des Pierres de Faux par Privas is 12.6 km long with a total drop of 508 m. The average slope is 4% with maximum slopes of 12%.

Pass taken from Aubenas. Nice climb despite the traffic. Very nice view of the Ardeche mountains and exhilarating descent to Privas

Beautiful descent towards Privas
