A real urban climb, with plenty of variety. It starts at the foot of the Sacré Coeur Basilica and finishes at the University Campus. The first part is identical to the côte des Champs Saint Gervais. It's ridiculous, but I'm quoting myself: "Very funny, this climb! 6 different streets for 700 metres of climbing! Learn the route before you start, otherwise you risk getting lost.

A real urban climb, with plenty of variety.
It starts at the foot of the Sacré Coeur Basilica and finishes at the University Campus.
The first part is identical to the côte des Champs Saint Gervais.
It's ridiculous, but I'm quoting myself:
"Very funny, this climb!
6 different streets for 700 metres of climbing!
Learn the route before you start, otherwise you risk getting lost.
Special mention for rue de la Carrue and rue des Champs Saint Gervais...
We zigzag over completely irregular gradients.
The sign announcing 19％ doesn't lie...
A very interesting view of Rouen and the Gustave Flaubert Bridge "
The end of the climb is gentler and steadier. You really leave the city of Rouen behind and arrive at the more "rural" landscapes of Mont Saint Aignan.
The view of Rouen is rather obstructed by the trees that line the railway line.
This is a really nice urban climb, offering a wide variety of views and gradients. A must-do!

Une vraie montée urbaine extrêmement variée.
On démarre au pied de la Basilique du Sacré Cœur et on finit le Campus Universitaire.
La première partie est identique à la côte des Champs Saint Gervais.
C’est ridicule mais je « m’auto-cite » :
« Très marrante, cette montée !
6 rues différentes pour 700 mètres d’ascension !
Apprenez l’itinéraire avant de démarrer sinon vous risquez de vous égarer.
Mention spéciale pour la rue de la Carrue et la rue des Champs Saint Gervais…
On zigzague sur des pourcentages complètement irréguliers.
Le panneau qui annonce 19％ ne ment pas…
Une vue très intéressante sur Rouen et le Pont Gustave Flaubert »
La fin de l’ascension est plus douce et régulière. On sort vraiment de la ville de Rouen pour arriver à des paysages plus « champêtres » de Mont Saint Aignan.
La vue sur Rouen est assez obstruée par les arbres qui longent la voie ferrée.
Une vraie chouette côte urbaine qui offre une belle diversité de vues et de pourcentages. A faire !

This is a good climb, with little traffic on the first part. When you reach the bottom of the valley after the descent, you need to stop at a traffic light because of buses and cars. The valley floor is wide enough for cars and bicycles to share. Watch out for the Rue des Champs Saint-Gervais, which averages over 16％ for 100m with a peak of 19％.
The finish is on the panorama of Mont-Saint-Aignan with a beautiful view of Rouen.

Bonne côte qui est globalement peu fréquentée sur sa première partie. L'arrivée sur le fond deval après la descente nécessite de s'arrêter à un feu à cause du passage des bus et des voitures. Le fond deval est assez large pour que les voitures et les vélos cohabitent. Attention à la Rue des Champs Saint-Gervais qui est à plus de 16％ de moyenne sur 100m avec une pointe à 19％.
L'arrivée se fait sur le panorama de Mont-Saint-Aignan avec une très belle vue sur Rouen.
