We decided to be even more ambitious today than the day before (when we walked up to Mont Boron), and walk all the way up Fort de la Revere, situated at the somewhat more respectable height of 696 meters.
The walk began at the dramatically located perched village of Eze (pictured left), one of the prettiest villages on the Cote d'Azur (unfortunately, it seems that about every 2nd house in the village is a restaurant or tourist shop).
After a steep and rather strenuous walk we finally made it up to the fort (which dates back to 1870), which we could not visit, unfortunately. But anyway, we had some pretty nice views from there over the Riviera, as well as the other way towards the Alps.
