Col de Châteauneuf from Contes
Length
6.9 km
Elevation
423 m
Gradient
6.2%
Starting in Contes, this climb rises quickly away from the valley and into quieter hillside roads that feel far removed from the coast despite being relatively close to Nice. The gradient is irregular, with sharper ramps breaking up steadier sections, so it demands attention to pacing rather than allowing a fully relaxed rhythm.
The start of the climb is the hardest part, once you've done the first kilometer the gradients stay in the single digits.
