The climb featured in the last stage of the Tour de France 2025. It might be best to tackle it when it’s raining to avoid having to 'slalom' through the tourists in some places :-). The climb is worth a detourgoes or the cobbles, of course, and especially for the view of the city from Montmartre.... read more

The view from Sacré-Coeur is well worth the diversions, but you have to go at a time when there are no crowds. The latest news is that work is underway on the lower part of rue Lepic.

La récompense de la vue depuis le Sacré-coeur vaut le détour, mais il faut y aller à un moment sans fréquentation. Aux dernières nouvelles, travaux sur la partie basse de la rue Lepic

Excellent climb, although the new 2025 TdF had a slightly different start up the Rue Puget and Rue Coustou.

The climb segment ends before you run into notable tourist crowds, and if you take the alley to the left of Le Consulat, you'll avoid most of the crowds.

To do the climb 100％ according to climbfinder, one must start at the very foot of Rue Lepic. Good luck with the tourists there.

The climb is well worth the diversions, but you'll come across a lot of tourists at the end.

La montée vaut vraiment le détour, mais vous croiserez de nombreux touristes sur la fin.

Rode this on a 25kg Kronan bike. Good workout. Suggest doing it at dawn.

Not to be missed when visiting Paris :) Choose your time carefully to be on the safe side.
Don't miss the windmill at the end of the climb, one of the few in Paris.

The only hill in Paris! With Ménilmontant. Fun to climb at night when there are hardly any cars. And cobbled climbs are rare. In short, for Parisians, yes, it's something to do from time to time.

La seule côtelette parisienne ! Avec Ménilmontant. Amusant à gravir de nuit quand il n’y a presque plus de voitures. Et puis les ascensions sur pavés, c’est rare. Bref, pour les Parisiens, oui, c’est à faire de temps en temps.
