Les Fonts de Cervières from Cervières

The D89T rises 11.5km through mountain forest into exposed high country, gaining 465m to 2,046m. The average gradient of 4% disguises ramps of 8.5% — the kind of gradient that turns plans into prayers. The 4 hairpin turns break up the climb, each one revealing a new perspective on the road ahead. At 2,046m, the summit rises above the treeline into an exposed, often windswept landscape. Located in Piedmont, France.
