Climbed during the Paris-Nice 2022 challenge (13 March) on a cold day with a strong wind. First climb after approaching the valley. A nice climb. Regular with a good road surface.

Monté pendant le challenge Paris-Nice 2022 (13 mars), journée froide avec un vent fort. Première montée après l'approche de la vallée. Une belle montée. Régulier avec une bonne surface de route. Surtout en mars, très calme avec le trafic. Superbes panoramas. L'escalade est régulièrement visitée par des pros qui vivent dans la région (Monaco !).
