Saint Mark's Oratory
Last ascent of the Petites Routes du Soleil
Altitude 1016 m
Massif des Préalpes de Castellane
Département Alpes-Maritimes
Topo eastern slope
This final ascent of the Petites Routes du Soleil is neither a pass nor a village, but a climb that will take you to the Oratoire de Saint-Marc at 1016 m altitude, the highest point near Coursegoules.
This last hurrah should go off without a hitch, as the gradient doesn't exceed 5%.
Note that the descent on the opposite slope will guide you to the Col de Vence, where you can finally catch a glimpse of the Mediterranean Sea!
