Hard road ride. Very good fitness required. Mostly well-paved surfaces and easy to ride. The starting point of the route is right next to a parking lot.

Route de Guillaumes

Highlight (Segment) • Other

The view from the Col de Valberg is wonderful, towards a gentle and very green mountain landscape. If you go there in the summer in the middle of the day and go down from Valberg towards Guillaumes, it is the gateway to the descent towards a furnace
