Nice climb, not difficult, but busy!!

Beautiful climb, not too difficult and beautiful views

The climb from Roquebrune-sur-Argens is definitely worth it for the amazing views! At some point, you'll even see the Mediterranean Sea and Saint-Raphaël! The asphalt is poor, however, which isn't so much of a problem when climbing, since you're already going slowly. It gets better after the second green light, but by then you're already pretty high up. If you want to descend (again) towards Roquebrune, you have to hold the handlebars firmly and be on your guard! A few stones or hops over potholes at high speed are all it takes, and you'll quickly find yourself on the outside edge of the bend! The climb itself is manageable – only a few sections are significantly over 6%, and they're mostly short.

A beautiful and very isolated route, paved throughout. However, the surface is often not the best, so ride carefully! Narrow tires on a road bike, especially if you're not using tubeless tires, can easily lead to a flat tire.

Very bad road surface. I did the segment from north to south last week with a racing bike. It is a miracle that I did not get a flat tire. Especially the (long) descent to Roquebrune is in very bad condition. It might be better to do the ride in the opposite direction so that the speed is lower a where the road is worst.

We never get tired of it even if it's always so crowded, summer and winter...

quiet and beautiful
