Beautiful gravel section in the rolling Jura meadowlands. If you come from Pont des Janiers, take the hill on the left - if you continue straight ahead, the gravel road becomes a grassy track.

Small winding route with little traffic.
A lot of forest, later worth seeing raised bogs.

Normal tour, so 10km uphill...and then the road was closed for roadworks. The nice man then allowed me to drive through, telling me to stay on the side of the road because the tar was still hot. We ended up driving about 4km, halfway through the ditch. The detour would have been twice as far.
