This route is not possible from Chemin de la Nerthe on a gravel bike. There is a very steep descent and a very steep climb with coarse gravel near that …

Fort de Niolon Haut

Highlight • Castle

Unfortunately, the fortress cannot be visited. But you can at least walk around most of it. There is still a bunker from the last century on the next summit.

Stroll inspired by a team scott outing.

I took the opportunity to visit the factory and see if it is possible to go to l'Estaque from there (it's completely blocked / gated, but some seem to have the key / code).
