Walks & Gardens of the French Riviera
Enjoy coastal walking on the Cote d’Azur
On the Franco-Italian border, by the warm Mediterranean sea, Menton is a delight for any visitor. It is easy to see how the city earned its nickname 'the Pearl of France', combining gardens, seaport, beach resort and a hiker’s paradise into one. With the Alpine chain dropping into the sea at the France-Italy border, it is also an ideal location for a guided walking trip. Many of the trails start directly from the town and gain altitude in a short distance, offering some of the finest views of the French Riviera.
