Twinned with Mont Tourrette to the west of Mont Chauve, the two summits are topped by fortifications - strategic positions dominating the port and the city of Nice.

Mont Chauve is Nice’s hidden mountain. It is hiding in plain sight, sitting there just to the north, right above the city, but nevertheless it is hidden. The best time to come, perhaps, is early in the morning, to watch the sun rise over Italy; on clear days, from the fort, Corsica can be seen on the horizon. A hidden gem.

Mont Chauve is part of our Montagnes à la Carte series, head over to bit.ly/3ziOHba and claim your badge if you rode this classic.

After the tough climb, you're rewarded with incredible views over Nice, the Med and the lower Alps. It makes the effort very worthwhile.
