The historic old town of Menton, the “Vieille Ville”, impresses with its labyrinth of narrow, shady streets and the striking, pastel-colored house fronts that stretch picturesquely up the hill.

In the old town, there are numerous opportunities to buy lemons, lemon candies, lemon soap, lemon cake, and lemon ice cream. The famous lemons of Menton differ from other varieties in their elliptical shape, lack of bitterness, more vibrant colors, and oil-rich peels that impart a more pronounced fragrance.

Citrus fruits are the heart of this French coastal city, bathing it in golden hues. Since the 15th century, the city's inhabitants have cultivated citrus trees, benefiting from a unique microclimate that is a few degrees warmer than the rest of the Côte d'Azur.

The Col d'Èze, located between Nice and Monaco, near La Turbie in the Alpes-Maritimes department, peaks at 507 m.

Despite its modest altitude, it is important to remember that the climbs all start at sea level and that the elevation gain is therefore quite significant at nearly 500 m. There are many options for accessing the Col d'Èze...

“Menton. Italy is beginning, you can feel it in the air,” wrote Flaubert. The old town has an air of la dolce vita. It’s easy to get lost in the narrow streets, stairways, and shaded squares, lined with luminous ochre facades. Within the old fortified walls, the medieval crosspieces and the Baroque complex of the Parvis Saint-Michel reveal the weight of history. And everywhere, absolutely everywhere, the Mediterranean reminds us of its presence with its dazzling blue. A marvel for the eyes and the heart!
