Pointe Saint-Hospice trail

A short loop from the port of Saint-Jean around the Saint-Hospice peninsula on Cap Ferrat. A narrow path runs along the rocks to the point itself, and a paved path leads back through a pine grove. Along the way you can climb to the Saint-Hospice chapel with its 11-meter statue of the Madonna.

Colours work like ski runs and match the app: they come from the length, the climbs and the steepness. Highest point: 25 m.

Where to start

The port of Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat. Regular buses stop here. Parking is opposite the port.

Before you go

The coastal path is open in good weather. The narrow stretch to the point runs along a cliff right by the water.

A short side path leads to the chapel, there and back.
