The climb

Col d'Èze climbs 7.7 km at an average of 5.9%, gaining 454 m to a summit at 491 m. The gradient varies through the climb rather than holding steady, so the average is a fair summary but not a description of any particular kilometre.

The hardest kilometre measures 7.7% and comes in the opening third of the climb. The final kilometre eases to 1.7%, which is where the climb gives something back.

In ProPace's stage data it appears on one stage, which crosses it four times; each crossing is listed below.
