Imagine the warmth of the Mediterranean sun on your skin, the gentle sea breeze in your hair, and the rhythmic lullaby of the azure waves as your soundtrack. You’re meandering along the sun-kissed coastline of the French Riviera, where the sea meets the sky in a mesmerising dance of colours.

The Côte d’Azur is a radiant canvas of hues and textures. Your journey begins in Menton, a town painted in pastel shades, where the air is perfumed with the scent of blooming lemon groves. As you move towards the opulent city-state of Monaco, the sight of luxury casinos and a yacht-lined harbour is a testament to its grandeur.

The Belle Époque charm of Beaulieu-sur-Mer and the rustic allure of Villefranche-sur-Mer, with its narrow, winding streets and colourful houses, offer a delightful contrast. Your journey culminates in Nice, the pulsating heart of the Riviera.

Our hikes are designed to be lowkey and enjoyable, following the coastline and offering breathtaking views of the sea, the cliffs, and the towns. The trails are mostly flat, with minimal elevation changes, making them suitable for anyone who enjoys walking and can handle a couple of hours of daily walking.

At Walking Holidays France, we take care of all the details so you can focus on the experience. We book your accommodations in charming local hotels, provide a detailed handout with a day-by-day itinerary, and offer GPS navigation through a user-friendly app.

We also include local recommendations for dining and sightseeing, and we’re always available to solve any logistical issues. All you need to do is pack your walking shoes and have a sense of adventure.

Join us on our French Riviera Hiking Holiday and let the Côte d’Azur work its magic on you.
