Traveler reviews
Alexey Subach
â â â â â 2 years agoSweet views on the park with greenery and the sea. Itâs worth a small climb for sure
Joshua Savery
â â â â â a year agoBreathtaking views. If you want unobstructed views walk few minutes towards the tunnel. As if you are going towards nice. Just before the tunnel the view is the best. You will get fantastic panoramic photos of the bay. You may even see some sea planes! You can walk down to the beach if you got decent footwear as part of the trail is very rocky. Also need to fit! It is steep
