카로스‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪8‬개의 산길

Often used during the Paris-Nice route, the Col de Vence is well-known in the region. From La Colle-sur-Loup, the climb is nearly 17 kilometers long with an average gradient of 5.3%. The first five kilometers are not very steep, then the slope rises while remaining relatively steady.

The Conte side is made up of a series of hairpins with a large % of slope on the ubac The Tourette-Levens side is shorter with only one hairpin. The entire climb is on the sunny side

Climb about 10 km long with always easy slopes. At the top excellent panorama.

From here, after a short walk, there is a wonderful view of the Mediterranean

An unmissable pass in the region: the road is beautiful, winding, the percentages remain reasonable (stronger at the beginning than at the end of the pass), the views during the ascent and at the summit are splendid. Be careful, there is very little shade for shelter in the summer. And in winter, there can be snow at the summit (1,000 meters above sea level). It can be surprising when you arrive from the coast. Road traffic can be heavy there, especially on weekends.

Fantastic view over Nice - great one-way-road

The ascent to Mont Chauve is entirely paved, even if the asphalt after the barrier is very damaged, and allows you to reach this panoramic panettone above Nice, enjoying a 360° view. We talked about it here https://outdoortest.it/riviera-gravel-due-percorsi-gravel-a-picco-sul-mare-della-costa-azzurra/

As soon as you leave the M14 turning right for the Mont Chauve road, it takes a little over 7km of ascent over 540m positive; to reach the fort.
