Taken from the Route de la Baronne along the Cote de Gattières, much more pleasant than the climb via Carros, which I found steep. Once in Bouyon there is a fairly steep ramp for about a kilometre, then the climb is steady and very pleasant all the way to Coursegoules. Take the opportunity to climb to the Col de Vence (well deserved!) and enjoy the descent.

Fait depuis la route de la Baronne en prenant la Cote de Gattières, bien plus agréable que la montée via Carros que j'ai trouvé raide. Une fois à Bouyon une rampe assez raide sur environ un km, ensuite, la montée est régulière et très agréable jusqu'à Coursegoules. Profitez en pour monter au col de Vence (mérité!) et savourer sa descente.
