Very steep climb, but fortunately fairly short. The road is in very good condition, but it's best to climb it early in the morning to avoid the crowds (pedestrians and cars). The view from the foot of the Bonne Mère is incredible! You can go round it to get a 360-degree view of the city. ... read more

Montée très raide, mais heureusement assez courte. L'état de la route est très bon, mais il faut mieux la grimper tôt le matin pour éviter la foule (piétons et voitures). La vue aux pieds de la Bonne Mère est incroyable ! Possibilité de faire le tour pour avoir une vue à 360 degrés sur la ville.

Short but steep climb that starts alongside a defense wall built by Louis XIV (the Sun King) andd climbs to the Notre-Dame de la Garde basilica (the time trail on the penultimate stage of the 2017 Tour climbed via a nearby road).
The top allows you to see the city, the old port, the Vélodrome stadium, the Mediterranean. Spectacular
