When lockdown happens over a weekend we take to the coastal paths on Monaco’s doorstep. Who can complain with views and weather like this? Never get bored of this trail which goes all the way from Monaco to Cap Martin . We ended with another gourmet picnic in our garden.

Super Sunny Sunday Happy Hiker Green trail on Monaco's doorstep. One of our all time favourites that starts from La Turbie. This one is within everyone's grasp with only 220m of positive gain for a 2.5 hour circuit with stunning views. A windy day to blow all the cobwebs away followed by a gourmet picnic in Beaulieu-sur-Mer. Great company, good food, what more can you ask for?

Truly magical hike on a favourite loop around Mont Carpano above Castellar. We were blessed with glorious sunshine and blue sky. Up on the Plan du Lion the views were really special yesterday, there is a mystical kind of light up there with beams from heaven coming through loud and clear :)
Thanks to Michael Pellegrino for the photos and the post-hike 'tea time' in Blue.

A great happy Hiker red trail around Mont Bastide, encompassing the Basse, Moyenne and Grande Corniches. This one really gives your glutes a great workout with 600m of positive gain and the views from the top are priceless. The Happy Hiker crew went on to have a picnic in Beaulieu-sur-Mer . From the top of a mountain to the sea shore and Michael's unbeatable lamb curry - delicious!
