10 km of coastline, the 5th largest city in France and 300 days of sunshine a year - as the capital of the French Riviera and France's second largest tourist destination after Paris, Nice is a modern, busy city that also serves as the economic heart of the area.
In the middle of the sea and the mountains lies the wonderful Mediterranean city and offers fantastic mountains, beautiful countryside, historic castles, wild rivers, cozy and hip city life as well as ski resorts, nature parks, beaches, gastronomy in a class of its own and much more. The city is elegant and hugely popular, and the charm of the city of Nice lies in its relaxed, idyllic lifestyle and pace, which stems from the beauty of Nice itself as well as the extraordinary climate.
Nice invites to Slow Tourism Due to the unique microclimate, Nice Côte d'Azur invites to trekking holidays and Slow Tourism - holidays at a leisurely pace. There are really good hiking trails in the area. We recommend the following one of the nine routes "Lesoops Découvertes de Nice", taking the new "Lou Camin Nissart" or even walking along the path Cap de Nice, which connects Nice to Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat via Villefranche-sur -More, then to Cap d'Ail.
