Don't forget to look on the other side of the Col, or the big bike, at sunset you can get some interesting photos and obviously the view!

Borrowed many times by the Tour de France and Paris-Nice, the Col d'Èze is a major venue in French cycling. To overcome it, you have to climb for eight kilometers at an average gradient of 6.1%.

I recommend going up from old Nice and down to the port. Very nice point of view with benches in the shade. Slightly further towards Mont Boron, there is a fountain with drinking water.
