Highlight • Trail

Fairly easy route with family or friends. The track that goes up to the Vacheries is very beautiful in the gray lands with a beautiful waterfall. You will pass in front of the Sainte Anne chapel. Take a break at the Vacheries bridge and put your feet in the water of the river! Return to Auron via the tracks via the Estive lake.

Péone Rock Formations

Highlight • Natural Monument

Péone is built on a striking field formation so that the old houses seem to merge with the rock. In the evening the scenery was illuminated in color, which is perhaps a bit kitschy, but quite effective.

Roubion

Highlight • Other

This village perched on its rock irremediably attracts the visitor. At the end of the 2000s, Prince Albert II of Monaco fell in love with this town surrounded by wild life.

It was during a release of bearded vultures in the Mercantour National Park that he fell in love with the place and bought a second home in the town. Perhaps one day you will come across the famous villager, at the bend of a path in this small village of only 165 inhabitants.

Isola Village

Highlight • Settlement

Isola is always a haven of peace for me, where I take a deserved break in the park at the foot of the Romanesque bell tower. Its fountain is always pleasantly cool in summer.
