Nice climb! Lovely views over the gateway to the valleys. Alas, the developers will be at it again and again. Nice road. Easy ascent and great views over the Var. ... read more

Nice climb! Lovely views over the gateway to the valleys.
Alas, the developers will be at it again and again.
Nice road. Easy ascent and great views over the Var.

Jolie ascension ! Très chouette panorama sur la porte des vallées.
Hélas, les promoteurs vont sévir encore et encore.
Belle route. Montée facile et beaux points de vue sur le Var.

Climbed during Paris-Nice challenge 2022 (13 March) cold day with lots of wind. First climb after the approach from the valley. I marked the segment on STRAVA and the name is: #FR - climfinder - La Roquette-sur-Var from Saint-Martin-du-Var . Strava says the distance is 3.94 km and the altitude difference 236 metres, average ascent 6%. Seems just a bit spicier than climbfinder's statement. Road climbs on to C^te de Levens. a nice climb. Regular with a good road surface. Especially in March very quiet with traffic. Nice view of the valley and the Var river. Climb is regularly visited by pros living nearby (Monaco!). This climb was in the 1981 Tour de France (1st over Bernard Hinault) and 1964 (1st over Frederico Bahamontes).

Beklommen tijdens Paris-Nice challenge 2022 (13 maart) koude dag met veel wind. Eerste klim na de aanloop vanuit het dal. Ik heb op STRAVA het segment gemerkt en de naam is: #FR - climfinder - La Roquette-sur-Var vanuit Saint-Martin-du-Var . Strava zegt dat de afstand is 3,94 km en het hoogte verschil 236 meter, gemiddelde stijging 6%. Lijkt net wat pittiger dan de opgave van climbfinder. Weg klimt door naar C^te de Levens. een mooie klim. Regelmatig met een goed wegdek. Zeker in maart erg rustig met verkeer. Mooi zicht op het dal en de rivier de Var. Klim wordt regelmatig bezocht door profs die in de buurt wonen (Monaco!). Deze klim zat in de Tour de France van 1981 (1e boven Bernard Hinault) en 1964 (1e boven Frederico Bahamontes).
