Menton

Why go

The old town gives Menton a strong sense of place: its stepped layout rewards looking back at the coast as you climb. The border setting and the town's long association with citrus add context, but the essential experience is the relationship between its elevated streets and Mediterranean edge.

What to look for

• Climb through the terraces of Menton's old town.
• Pause for views back over the coast from the upper streets.
• Notice how the town rises sharply from its waterfront.

Useful to know

• Start near the waterfront and work upward through the old town so the view opens gradually.
• Expect steps and slopes; allow time to return by the same hillside streets.
