The location of the valley is unique: only 45
kilometres from the Riviera beaches, and yet only a twenty minute
drive from the local ski station! Furthermore, due to its setting,
close to the warming sea breezes, and protected by the foothills
of the Alps to the North and East, and the mountains of Provence
to the West, the area enjoys a 'micro climate', assuring over 300
days of sunshine every year.
The location is renowned as one of the best paragliding
sites in Europe, but the following activities are also available
in the region:
Rock-climbing, hill-walking, canyoning, pot-holing,
horse riding and pony trekking, hang-gliding, archery and all those
pursuits associated with a landscape of such beauty (e.g. outdoor
painting, photography or simply enjoying the views, glass in hand,
from our South-facing terrace).
