A quiet, pastoral climb with a beautiful view at the top. It's a shame it's so short.

Une montée calme et champêtre qui offre une très belles vue en haut. C’est dommage qu’elle soit si courte.

In itself, this climb is of little interest: it's short and gently uphill.
But it did allow me to discover my first piloudrôme! (Pilou is a juggling game from Nice).
It's short, it's gentle, it's calm.

En soi, cette côte n’est pas très excitante : elle est courte et monte faiblement.
Mais, elle m’a permis de découvrir mon premier piloudrôme ! (Le pilou étant un jeu de jonglage niçois).
C’est court, c’est doux, c’est calme.
Et vive le pilou et celles et ceux qui piloutent.
