Giro veloce in bici da Villafranca a Nizza

Set off from the charming port town of Villefranche-sur-Mer, known for its pastel-colored waterfront and cozy Old Town. This ride to Nice is just under 10 km, making it a perfect coastal cruise with a bit of a workout. You’ll start with gentle climbs—almost 180 meters of ascent—with sweeping views of the Mediterranean as you pedal up and over the cape.

The route sticks mostly to quiet roads and designated cycleways, so you can really enjoy the sea breeze. After the high point, it’s a relaxing descent (more than 250 meters) as you coast toward Nice. The final stretch brings you into the heart of this lively Riviera city, famous for its Promenade des Anglais, pebble beaches, and vibrant markets.

With smooth asphalt nearly the whole way and minimal traffic, it’s a scenic, easygoing ride—just enough hills to keep things interesting without being too tough. Take your time, stop for photos, and maybe reward yourself with a gelato in Nice!
