The Turini curves

Highlight • Other

Wow, the road is built along the mountain slopes. The descent is accordingly spectacular (and the ascent is certainly spectacular too). Short stops for photo shoots are worthwhile.

The Col de Turini from the D 2565 is a 15.3km long climb with a positive elevation of 1107m. The average gradient is 7.24% with maximum gradients of 9%. There is downhill tree cover and you spend quite a bit of time in a forest. From the climb you have views towards Nice and the Mediterranean Sea.
