This is a remarkable road, a favourite of ours.
Its well worth seeking out - from Menton you are looking for the D22 which is signposted for Ste Agnes.
The west side, pictured here, is dramatic in a few places but also quite shabby in parts. Unfortunately the lower parts of the climb overlook a huge cement works in the valley. The village of Peille is quite interesting though.
The east side is a fantastic road, see pages 3 and 4.
