Optional hike along the "Path of Paradise" to the Eagle's Nest in the medieval village of Gourdon and then descend to Pont du Loup via the adventurous trail through the Wolf Gorge.

In the morning, a transfer will take you to Courmes, then you will climb to the top of Courmettes, which offers a fantastic panoramic view: from Nice to Mandelieu, over the Mercantour National Park and the Mediterranean Sea. It is one of the most impressive viewpoints of the entire region. Over the edge of the Puy de Tourette rise the limestone plateaus of Caussols, Vence and du Cheiron.

On the peak of mountain Baudon (1.200 m) the panorama view onto the mountains and the Sea is fabulous. The climb up to Sainte-Agnès passes the old village of Gorbio, which is the highest point of this area.

On your last hiking stage the fantastic descent to Menton awaits you! Until 1935 there was no other access to the sea, besides this footpath. This route leads with view onto the sea through the diversified forms of vegetation, with always changing smells. Menton attracts with its old city and a bath in the sea.
