This is a challenging ride approximately 16km from the Promenades des Anglais to the top. It says it’s only 6.9km but you’re actually climbing from within the city from about the 14km mark. There is a slight downhill for a couple km before you begin the official climb. The heat and humidity are a challenge so best to do it early morning. There is a barrier about 2km from the top that prevents car traffic but overall very few cars on the climb itself. There is an old fortress at the top wit... read more

Spicy climb, starting from Nice. After that, it gets calmer and calmer. At the very top, you have fantastic views over the Alpes Maritime/Nautique.

Pittige beklimming, waarbij je vanuit Nice vertrekt. Daarna wordt het rustiger en rustiger. Helemaal boven heb je fantastische uitzichten over de Alpes Maritime/Nautique.

Great climb; nice and punchy, quiet, fantastic views, close to Nice, nice hairpin turns. I rode this from the route to Levens, then from Nice to Saint Andre de la Roche you still have it pretty much flat and only from the turnoff to Falicon do you go to the top in 9.8 km.

Geweldige klim; lekker pittig, rustig, fantastisch uitzicht, vlakbij Nice, mooie haarspelbochtjes. Ik reed deze vanuit de route naar Levens, dan heb je vanuit Nice naar Saint Andre de la Roche het nog vrijwel vlak en pas vanaf de afslag naar Falicon ga je in 9,8 km naar de top.

From Nice, you first have to tackle the Rimiez coast, which is not my favourite.
Once you get to Falicon, things become much more interesting.
The road is very pleasant, very quiet and the higher you climb, the smaller and wilder it becomes. This little ribbon draws laces and pins with boundless imagination. You'll be treated to all kinds of bends!
This climb is quite demanding. I found it a steady climb, and it's easy to find your own rhythm.
After the barrier, the quality of the surface deteriorates but it's still totally passable. You'll just have to watch out for the gravel, especially on the descent.
At the top, this strange old fort and an actively moving camera.
Along the way, abandoned and tagged houses. There's an atmosphere of a forgotten world up there.
All I saw were cyclists. Not a single polluting vehicle! So rare.
The descent is a delight! But watch out for all the traps.
Five stars for the very special atmosphere.

Depuis Nice, il faut d’abord se coltiner la côte de Rimiez, qui n’est pas ma préférée.
Une fois arrivé à Falicon, tout devient beaucoup plus intéressant.
La route est très plaisante, très calme et plus on grimpe plus elle devient minuscule et sauvage. Ce petit ruban dessine des lacets et des épingles avec une imagination sans borne. Vous aurez droit à tous les types, toutes les formes de virages !
Cette montée est assez exigeante. Je l’ai trouvée régulière et de fait on trouve son rythme.
Après la barrière, la qualité du revêtement se dégrade mais ça reste totalement praticable. Il faudra juste penser à faire attention aux gravillons surtout dans la descente.
En haut, cet étrange vieux fort et une caméra qui s’agite activement sans que l’on comprenne trop bien ce qu’elle surveille.
Sur le chemin, des maisons abandonnées et taguées. Il règne là haut une atmosphère de monde oublié.
Je n’ai croisé que des cyclistes. Pas un véhicule polluant ! Si rare.
La descente est un régal ! Mais attention à tous les pièges.
Allez, cinq étoiles pour l’ambiance bien particulière.

The climb itself is challenging and from the prom it’s about 878m of climbing.

Very steep climb but superb view of nice at the end . Passage of the bodywork and the last km at 9％ very steep . Not to be done in the summer in the middle of the afternoon!!!
