Traveler reviews
Beat A. Schwendimann
★★★★★a year agoSpectacular view of Nice from the castle hill. It's worth making the steep trip up the hill. On the hilltop is also a cafe and a playground.
Samantha Platt
★★★★★2 years agoIncredible views of the Promenade from this viewpoint. We travelled up by the electric train. It is $12 per person to ride and stops at this viewpoint for 10 mins. We elected not to get back on train for the return journey and instead stayed to enjoy the view and the walk back down to the Promenade.
