The route goes counter-clockwise and crosses the Var valley to Entrevaux. Then follows the ascent of the Col de Felines and a steep descent.
Then take the D10, a narrow road, which takes you to the top of the Col du Trébuchet . The road in the descent is also narrow, also take into account the crushed stone of rock that has rolled from the surrounding rocks and may be on the road. Via the Clue du Riolan and Sigale, you enter the valley of the Estéron River and go up near Vescous to... Mont Vial (1522 m above sea level). In this climb you follow the narrow D117 to Toudon, watch out for any stones on the road surface. In Toudon, you take the D27 and then exit to the top (no exit). At the top of Mont Vial is a weather station and the summit offers you a 360-degree panorama overlooking the Mediterranean Sea. However, the last 7 kilometers of climb (since the exit of the D27) are bad: holes and potholes in the surface of the road and crushed stones. Since the last 7 km are dead ends, after reaching the summit the first 7 km a dangerous descent awaits you! If you decide not to climb to the top from Toudon (due to the condition of the road surface), the route will be about 17 km shorter and 500 altimeters will expire.
The route passes for a long time on the D27 which remains hilly (up and down) at about 1000 meters above sea level under the peaks of various rocky massifs and offers you beautiful views. Finally, you go down the Col de Saint-Raphaël to the Var valley, and cross the Var valley towards Entrevaux.
