Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product

Pass By: Serre de la Madone, 74 route du Val de Gorbio, 06500, Menton France

Rendez-vous in front of the Town Hall of Beausoleil. Two options here:

1- We start climbing towards the village of La Turbie and then to Madone descending to Sainte-Agnès and Menton

or:

2- We ride down to Monaco (only a few metres away) and turn towards Menton. The main road follows the coastline. Once in Menton we climb up to Madone through Saint-Agnès. We'll then descend to La Turbie and back to Beausoleil.

Pass By: Chiesa di San Nicolo, Via Carrubbio Lungo, 11, 18031 Bajardo Italy

We'll start the ride from the Garavan Marina in Menton and cross into Italy straight away. Riding along the Via Aurelia we'll reach Ventimiglia and the holiday town of Vallecrosia. Here we can stop for coffee and croissant before getting onto the hilly inland. Olive groves all around you and many hairpin turns later we'll be in the leafy old village of Perinaldo, where we can stop on the main square at about 590mt a.s.l. The restaurants there offer spectacular views and excellent menus. On the return run you have two choices: back down towards by the road you took up or descend through Soldano, Biagio della Cima and then to Ventimiglia.

Pass By: Dolceacqua, Piazza Padre Giovanni Mauro, 18035 Italy

From just outside the Casino Square in Monte-Carlo, we'll cycle on the road along the seafront (the "Basse Corniche") towards Italy. Traffic in the morning is quiet as commuters are headed the opposite way towards Monaco. Detouring to the Cap of Cap-Martin you'll get into the beautiful seaside town of Menton. Keep cycling along the water and you'll soon be at the crossing to Italy. The road soon starts climbing at about 5-6% for a few km and then you'll descend into Ventimiglia. Here you'll have the chance of either continuing on the road inland or take a little known cycle path along the river which later becomes a gravel road. Climbing at 9% as you ride past fields and the river you'll soon be in the medieval village of Dolceacqua.
