Europe 2007 Part 21 Col de Tende - Colle di Tenda
I travel up the Col da Tenda on the border between Italy and France in the Maritime Alps.
Col de Tende (Italian: Colle di Tenda; elevation 1870 m) is a high mountain pass in the Alps, on the border of France and Italy.
It separates the Maritime Alps from the Ligurian Alps. It connects Nice and Tende in Alpes-Maritimes with Cuneo in Piedmont.
A railway tunnel inaugurated in 1898 and a road tunnel inaugurated in 1882 run under the pass. The latter tunnel is 3.2 kilometre long and is among the oldest long road tunnels.
My channel on you tube : is one of the most prolific from Poland, although unfortunately not the most visited. With almost one film per day, one may be forgiven for thinking I do nothing else but I do have a day job as well. I have produced more than 400 original films, most in English but also in Polish, French, Italian, Spanish and the occassional hint of German and Hebrew. My big interest in life is travel and history but I have also placed films on other subjects

There are a number of films here on the packaging industry. This is because I am the publisher of Central and Eastern European Packaging -- - the international platform for the packaging industry in this region focussing on the latest innovations, trends, design, branding, legislation and environmental issues with in-depth profiles of major industry achievers. Most people may think packaging pretty boring but it possibly effects your life more than you really imagine!
Central and Eastern European Packaging examines the packaging industry throughout this region, but in particular in the largest regional economies which are Russia, Germany, Poland, Czech Republic, Ukraine and Austria. That is not to say that the other countries are forgotten, they are not, but obviously there is less going on. However the fact that there are so many travel related films here is not from holidays but from business trips attending trade fairs around the region and the sites and give a pretty good idea where future films are going to come from! Every packaging trade fair is a new excuse to make another film!
In 1997 I founded Polish Business News .There are a number of business related films here and I intend to do many more on CRM (customer relations management).
My blog can be found via and and contains background information and more details of many of my films. This information is in English.
I have also a second blog on the site . This site has been recently started by a friend and I think it will soon be one of the leading travel sites in Poland, if not Central Europe. It contains additional information about some of the places and events shown in these films but most of that is in Polish.

Highest Seaside Village in Europe (Sainte-Agnès)
I have this clip on Dailymotion but upon consideration, I'm going to post it here on YouTube, also. (Usually, I don't put the same clips on both sites, in duplication.)
On the French riviera where I stayed for a couple of weeks recently, the Maritime Alps go right to the Mediterranean. Above the sea and beautiful beaches and gulfs, there are many perched villages. Sainte-Agnès is near Menton and Monaco, and you can take a little bus up there -- public transportation. Driving yourself is a real challenge, but fun if you like that. We did -- scary fun!
Apparently, this really is the highest seaside village in Europe. I was here before nine o'clock on a weekday morning. The old military fort/installation wasn't open, and if I understood correctly, is really just open during June, July and August (I visited in May). I'm sure it's very interesting. This is the one place where the Maginot Line did hold. (I mispronounce Maginot on the clip. The g is soft, not hard the way I said it.)
I'm disabled and didn't feel up to attempting to climb to the summit and the château, but my spouse did. He said it was strenuous, but he enjoyed it. It took him about 40 minutes to an hour, climbing and descending.
I stayed in the village, thinking, This is not a place for people who fear heights. Really, it's pretty dizzying. I found it difficult to walk without being pitched forward.
This region has two dry seasons per year, thus two Springs. It's an interesting microclimate. Even in the typical hot or warm, clear, sunny weather, clouds appearing quickly on the mountains, obscuring them, are a common sight.
I felt a sadness to this village. Maybe I wasn't feeling well or was just imagining things. Surely, people have lived, suffered and died here -- often violently, in war and conflict -- since ancient times. It's a beautiful village, however, with stacked stone buildings, tiny alleys, terraces, and an auberge where I sat for a bit and had a morning tomato juice. Far below, I could see a couple of stray horses being collected by a person with a dog, to join a group for riding. They were tiny, way below, yet in the gorge, I could hear them, quite far off.
We rented a beach house in this area for a week, then an apartment in a Medieval village, way up high. It was really excellent.
