An introduction to Èze

Eze can be divided in two parts:

  • Èze village and the perched village, at about 350 meters above the sea, offering a fantastic view on the coast.
  • Èze-sur-Mer (also called Èze-bord-de-Mer ; seaside), a seaside resort.

Get in

The commune is mainly crossed from West to East by 3 roads:

  • The "route du bord de mer" (sea-side road) or "Basse corniche" running along the whole coast of the département, passes through Èze-sur-Mer.
  • Èze village is located on the road called "Moyenne corniche" (M6007), commonly called a part of the "Route nationale 7" (the Holiday Route, running from Paris to Italy). As its name says, it runs halfway on the mountain-side.
  • The "Grande corniche" (D 2564; called avenue des diables bleus on the portion over Èze village) runs on top of the ridge between Nice and Menton.

Bus number 82 departs from the bus station Vauban in the East of Nice and has a stop in Èze, seven days a week (1 bus/hour, less on Sunday). The station Vauban is located on the route of Nice's tramway.

By bike

There are some good climbs on the portion on the sea-side road between Nice and Monaco: a 100m high one at Villefranche (on the West, next to Nice) and two others on the East side around Cap d'Ail. So be prepared to some effort or take your time. Not a good route for the heavy vélos bleus (Nice city bikes).

The road to Èze village and the Grand corniche can be considered as a sporty ride, given their respective altitudes (350m and 550m).

A long steep footpath and the Chemin de la Mer, connects the seaside town with the village proper. The walk downhill (from Èze to Eze-sur-Mer) takes 45 minutes. But if your want to do the route by can you will have to make a detour. There is a direct road from Èze village to the grande corniche.

It is dominated by the ruins of the castle of the 12th century and consists in narrow, winding streets and the baroque church is worth a visit. Its many shops, art galleries, hotels and restaurants attract a large number of tourists and honeymooners.
