Castle Hill is one of Nice’s most beautiful natural viewpoints and a fun outing for children who enjoy exploring. Although the original castle no longer exists, the hilltop is filled with gardens, walking paths, historic ruins, and an impressive waterfall. Kids love the sense of adventure as they wander the winding staircases, run across open green spaces, and admire the panoramic views of the Old Town, port, and sparkling Mediterranean Sea.

Highlights for families:

• Spectacular viewpoints perfect for photos and exploring
• A refreshing artificial waterfall that fascinates children
• Shaded gardens and picnic-friendly spots
• A small playground area for younger kids

Practical tips:

• Use the free elevator if you’re traveling with toddlers or strollers
• Bring water and light snacks — the hilltop is a lovely picnic area
• Opt for a morning or sunset visit for cooler temperatures and gentler light
• Combine the visit with a short walk through Nice Old Town for a full experience

Should parents wish to stroll hand-in-hand through the narrow streets of Vieux Nice or enjoy an aperitif at a seaside terrace, Non Stop Nanny Babysitting is ready to ensure your children have just as enjoyable evening.
