The Clue

"Halfway across Europe, backpacking 500 miles from Nice?" (4)

Definition

Our definition here is 'miles from Nice?', and it's more easily understood as 'miles from nice'. Our answer will be a word that describes this colloquial expression.

Indicator

This clue's indicators are 'Halfway across', 'back', and 'packing'. One of these is a selection indicator pointing out which letters in neighbouring fodder we should pay attention to. Another is a containing indicator - some fodder will contain other fodder. And a third is a reversal indicator guiding us to send some fodder backwards, reversing its order.

Fodder

This clue's fodder is 'Europe' and '500'. We'll need to find a short substitute for one of these and use it with the letters of the other (or some of them) to construct our answer, as guided by the clue's indicator(s).
