Description

Let me show you an incredible hike of Eze and the Alpes-Maritimes! I have an amazing circuit that offers three levels of perfect views from Eze-Sur-Mer to the plateau of Mont Bastide.

Located just northeast of Nice along the coast of southern France, Eze has a little bit of everything and boasts an incredible variety of plant and animal life. Following hiking trails that can take you up almost 600 meters, giving those willing to hike more than just a beach-side paradise.

The foothills along the coast have an amazing transition into spring and out of autumn, complete with blazing color changes and a relatively mild climate. Explore the natural habitat of over 150 mammal species and over 350 bird species as you hike along these epic trails.

You will have an amazing opportunity to trek through the last pines of a forest enduring from fires in 1986, and watch the land in its next phase of growth. Along the historic footpaths you can see the eclectic plants and flowers unique to this Mediterranean landscape, including mushrooms and wild berries.

From the summit plateau of Mont Bastide, you can appreciate the hike you just made by peering out at the captivating Mediterranean Sea and its coastline. While you are taking in the once-in-a-lifetime panoramas, you will also be able to indulge in the remains of a Neolithic occupation.

Depending on your hiking ability and your ambition, I can craft specific treks designed just for you to get the most out of your experience. I want to guide you on an unforgettable adventure through this utterly amazing region rising just above the coast.

Book this program now and spend a day soaring above the magical French Riviera exploring its nature!

I have an awesome day-hike program along the Esterel mountain range! And if you wanted to go further into the mountains, try my day trip at Mercantour National Park!

Nature is for me a fabulous field of investigation . Colors, scents, sounds are always present and reveal us so many sensations.
My hometown is Nice on the French Riviera and I explore my region from the Mediterranean shores to the highest peaks of the Mercantour National Park. In the summer time on foot, and in the winter with snowshoeing.

I am looking forward to guiding you in my region, sharing the vision of chamois, marmots and ibexes, on the tracks of wolves, and with a golden eagle in the sky.

Climbing with guide Guillaume was absolutely a highlight of my 2-week Europe vacation. Originally, we were planning on climbing in the Calanques, but the park was closed due to wind and fire danger. Guillaume chose another amazing location (Pic de Bretagne) based on my climbing abilities and preferences and kindly offered train station pick-up and hotel drop off, which I appreciated very much. The multi-pitch route we did was not only fun but also the right amount of challenge, which I thoroughly enjoyed. The communication from the team (Gauthier) was prompt and clear—highly recommend!

Luis Silva was a great climbing guide and belayer! He taught me how to do moves that were difficult and encouraged me to try routes that were challenging for me! Because of his encouragement, I managed to complete these routes! I really enjoyed the climbs and completed 8 routes in the Sesimbra/Azoia area. The weather was perfect, no direct sun and cool enough to enjoy the climbs. Explore-Share made booking an outdoor climbing experience in Lisbon extremely easy. Luis, our guide, was fantastic, and the platform’s organization was flawless.

We had Léo as a guide for our day climb in Fonty. We were blessed with a knowledgeable, warm, and instructive guide. Communication with Léo and Ivan was smooth and swift. Explore-Share was excellent in arranging everything for our day climb. The communication was quick, and the platform was easy to use, making our adventure stress-free.

Patrick was a great guide. He took us on an intermediate Via Ferrata at Passo Sella. Renato was quick to respond with any outreach on the Explore-Share platform. The booking process was straightforward, and once Patrick was confirmed, all went well. It was a wonderful experience, and I’d highly recommend the platform.
