Story by candaele sofie from tielt, Belgium, submitted on 17/08/2011

I climbed this mountain in summer of 2011. Still terrible surface (chaussée déformée), though it is worth the risk of a flat tire because of the surrounding which is very beautiful. Vultures circling above, waiting for you to die on this very steep slopes;-)

Story by Stefan van der Baan from Utrecht, The Netherlands, submitted on 25/07/2010

I tried to do this climb in summer 2009. At that time, the road had a bad surface/rocks from Espiaube on. Probably very nice for mountain bikes, I wouldnt recommend it for race bikes. Maybe it has been resurfaced in the mean time though. The alternative to Pla dAdet is ok.
