A very gradual and pleasant climb to get to grips with the bigger climbs. If you're just starting out, this climb is perfect for learning how to manage your effort over a distance of around 9km. It's not usually overcrowded, but be careful in summer, when the sun changes direction in the afternoon and the uphill section is exposed, making it quite demanding.

Montée très progressive et agréable pour s'initier aux montées plus importantes. Lorsque l'on débute, cette montée est parfaite pour apprendre à gérer son effort pendant environ 9km. Pas trop de fréquentation habituellement, attention cependant en été, l'après midi le soleil change de sens et la partie montante est exposée, ce qui la rend assez exigeante.

This climb is not at all difficult and is a good introduction if you want to tackle the tougher climbs, such as the Col d'Eze, the Col de Vence or the Col d'Ecre. Much of the route is wooded, with the beautiful village of La Gaude just outside the forest. If you want to avoid the traffic, opt for the M218 or Avenue Mermoz at the start of the climb, which is a much quieter alternative. As soon as it joins the main road, the M18, it turns right again, ending up on the M18 just before the village of La Gaude.
For pass-hunters, this ascent continues as far as the Col de Peyron, at the entrance to the village of Saint-Jeannet.

Cette montée ne présente aucune difficulté et constitue une bonne entrée en matière si l'on veut s'attaquer à des ascensions plus sévères, comme le col d'Eze, le col de Vence ou le col d'Ecre. Elle est en grande partie boisée et agrémentée à la sortie de la forêt par le beau village de la Gaude. Si l'on veut éviter le trafic, il convient d'opter, tout au début de l'ascension, pour la M218 ou avenue Mermoz, qui constitue une alternative beaucoup plus tranquille. Dès qu'elle rejoint la route principale, la M18, elle repart à nouveau sur la droite pour finir sur celle-ci juste avant le village de la Gaude.
A noter que, pour les chasseurs de cols, cette ascension se prolonge jusqu'au col de Peyron, situé à l'entrée du village de Saint-Jeannet.
