Nice view Menton Beach Boulevard

Highlight • Other

At the height of the Dogana, a cycle path begins, first on the side of the road, then on the very wide sidewalk, which ends under the old town. So you can pedal calmly looking around, what you will see is splendid.

Menton

Highlight • Settlement

Menton is a truly magnificent city with a particular microclimate, even better than that of Nice. The city is sheltered by the mountains that literally fall at the feet of the city and protect it. Its old town is one of the most beautiful on the Mediterranean coast. In winter, the lemon festival gives it even more color. It already has a lot! Menton is located on the border with Italy. The people of Menton often go shopping in Ventimiglia, the nearest Italian town just across the border. There is an institution in Menton, which is the jams from the Herbin house. I invite you to taste them by visiting their shop.

This stretch of coastal road between Ventimiglia and Menton is very scenic and panoramic. On one side, the sea with several secluded coves and crystal-clear water. On the other side, the terrain is immediately steep, giving way to the first slopes of the Maritime Alps.

Ventimiglia Old Town

Highlight • Settlement

Ventimiglia is a seaside town on the Ligurian coast a few kilometers from the French border. It is famous for its medieval old town with the cathedral of Santa Maria Assunta. I also recommend a walk along the promenade to enjoy a splendid view of the bay and the French Riviera. In the surroundings of the city, the botanical gardens of Villa Hanbury and the archaeological site of Albintimilium, with remains of a Roman theatre and baths, are interesting.

Ancient Via Julia Augusta

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

This section of the Eurovelo 8, also called the Mediterranean cycle route, temporarily leaves the Aurelia to travel along the ancient Via Julia Augusta, a Roman road dating back to the 1st century BC. There are some steps to go under the railway and the passage is a bit narrow, but it feels like taking a step back in time between the train tracks and the Tyrrhenian coast.

komoot unnecessarily leads us through street tunnels, over steep stairs and in front of blocked roads ... the return journey was easier
