Tree Walks in Nice

Nice has 2 walks that string its ancient trees together on foot, from 0.89 km to 0.9 km, past 6 trees in all. Each one is an afternoon rather than a hike, and every tree on it has a story worth the stop.

The order is ours, worked out from where the trees actually stand; the walking distance is the real one along streets and paths where we have been able to route it, and a straight line between trunks where we have not. Nothing here is a signposted trail.

Promenade des Anglais

3 trees · about 0.89 km · 12 min on foot

Begins at The Founding Trees of Jardin Albert 1er (Mixed species (19th-century public garden)) and ends at The Washingtonia Palms of Villa Masséna.

Colline du Château

3 trees · about 0.9 km · 12 min on foot

Begins at The Olive and Pine Grove of Colline du Château (Mixed species (Mediterranean hillside park)) and ends at The First Canary Island Date Palm of France.

All of these stand in Nice, where we map 10 remarkable trees in total. Or walk somewhere else: Alicante · Alkmaar · Amersfoort · Amsterdam · Arnhem · Assen

Over 1,900 old trees worth the walk
