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.

July 13, 2024,Des volcans a la mer. J0. Mont Dore. Boucle Croix Morand - Col de Guery
Before embarking on the long trek, I decided to spend a day in Mont-Dore. I wanted to climb the Col de la Croix-Morand, which I'm particularly fond of. For a bit of variety, I combined it with the Col de Guéry, which I hadn't yet visited.
